Alfred's Basic Guitar Method

Who it's for

• Guitar teachers introducing students to the instrument
• Beginning players working through a structured curriculum
• Self-taught guitarists seeking organized, proven instruction

What's inside

• Three progressive method books covering beginner to early intermediate
• Online audio accompaniments and video instruction with select titles
• Theory workbooks and chord reference charts to support method work

Things to consider

Start with Book 1 if you're new to guitar; it assumes no prior knowledge and introduces proper technique from day one. If you're teaching a group or prefer structured audio guidance, pair Book 1 with the online audio or video edition. Once you've completed Book 1, the chord chart becomes a handy reference for the styles introduced in Books 2 and 3. Theory books can supplement the method work at any point to deepen understanding of what you're playing.
