All Play Guitar - Level 1

Introduction

These books are designed to give you solid musical training while you LEARN SONGS.

• Our books support 3 different steps in your musical journey, first you PLAY

music, then you UNDERSTAND music, finally you CREATE your own music.

This book is the FIRST BOOK in the PLAYING section.

• At the back of this book is the “NOTES” section. At the end of each lesson your

teacher should write a brief description in the “notes” section, of the things you

should work on in between lessons. This gives you a clear outline of what to

work on, as well as how far you have come.

• At the very back of each book is a checklist of information that you should

understand before moving on to the next book. And the COMPLETION page,

stating that you learned all of the info on the checklist.

• Upon completing each level/book you instructor will notify the office and we will

send you a CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION and the book for the NEXT

LEVEL.

What you should expect when your teacher gets to your house.

• There must be ADULT SUPERVISION other than the instructor in the home

while the lesson is conducted.

• Your teacher should ARRIVE ON TIME, and should leave on time.

• Your teacher should have a Guitar, amp, tuner, and a way to play recordings.

• Your teacher should set up for the lesson in a PUBLIC PLACE in the house,

preferably the living room or den. This location should have good lightning,

chairs that support good posture (like dining chairs), and a power outlet.

• Your teacher should always encourage and facilitate the learning of SONGS.

• If you have questions or concerns about your lessons please call our office at:

(310) 745-4007

to, and matching specific notes. (Tuning by ear can be very difficult, if you have a hard

time with it, just move on and it will come later).

PLAYING TIP: When tuning, you should start with a low pitch and turn the

tuning machine so the note rises to the desired pitch.
