Alfred's Basic Guitar Method, Bk 2: The Most Popular Method for Learning How to Play (Alfred's Basic Guitar Library, Bk 2)

I am relearning the Guitar after a 30 year break. I worked through the first book in this series and am now on the second. 30 years ago I didn't pay much attention to learning the actual music I just memorized chords and played by ear. These books are excellent for learning all aspects of the method of playing guitar. It is a slower and harder process than just learning Guitar Tab but it is worth it if you have the time. I am actually doing both and I find that what I have picked up in the Alfred's book helps incredibly even when playing from Tab.

My son has studied guitar for the past 3 years. He finds the Alfred's Basic Method challenges him and allows him to progress in his playing.. The level 2 book continues to introduce new notes, chords and scales. There are solos, duets and accompaniments. Alfred is noted for being a fast paced and complete teaching method. I would have to agree with that assessment. My son started playing young so his teacher started with 2 more basic methods. This method continues to challenge my son and move him forward in his guitar playing ability.

Great book for my son learning guitar. He likes the songs which keeps him interested. Very useful.

Bought as gift for a friend. He loves it.

Guitar book 2 good for learning how to play

went from the alfreds kids level 3 to this book. A little more difficult than i was hoping, but my 6 yr old can do it.

Easy to understand..

Great book. My son loves it.
