- Great for an absolute beginner
I have no lessons other than this DVD and the Dummies book and I feel like I'm making real progress. The approach is very practical - getting you to play something as early as possible, and I found that very motivating. The style of presentation is light hearted and not at all intimidating.
I'm really pleased with this purchase and would reccommend it to any other newbie.

- Basic learning guitar
Although i have had a guitar for over 45 years i have not really taken to it seriously i can play all basic cords and pick out songs i know on the strings and accompany songs that i know well.My oldest son gave me this DVD along with Learning Guitar for Dummies second edition this xmas. Back to the DVD i found it easy because i new most of it already but i found it very helpful and inspiring and it got me practicing again.I believe this DVD with Jon Chappell taking you step by step,is a great starter for anyone wishing to learn to play guitar, it is so easy to follow children will grasp it in no time.Great value at twice the price i highly recommend it.Keep up the good work JON.From Brian.B

- Absolutely Brilliant... For an absolute beginner this is a "MUST"
My daughter aged 8yrs decided that she wanted to learn to play the guitar a couple of mnths ago. The middle of October (last month) we bought her one. Suprised to see how she could manage the frets she now has lessons at school, sadly it appears for this yr. only.
I puchased this DVD for her not really knowing what to expect only to find this Brilliant step by step guide, simplistic to follow in every way.
The DVD zooms in on the guitar itself and positioning on fingers on frets etc. at the right hand side of the screen is the cord Mr. Chappell is playing once again denoting where positioning of fingers should be.
Having had no previous experience at all our daughter found this DVD informative and extremely easy to follow ... Read More:

- Not up to the standard of the book...
I bought this DVD along with the Guitar for Dummies book.
One of them was great and I got a lot out of it. The other was this DVD. It's not all that bad, it's just that half of it is incredibly basic, and it doesn't advance much from there. Compared to the depth and range of styles in the book, I just didn't find much here. Might be OK for a total beginner, but if you know how to do relative tuning and play a few chords (E, D, A, G...) then I don't think it is great value.
Just get the book...

- Good but assumes too much
This dvd works well with an existing beginners dvd. If you can stand the Americana homeboy 'humour' you can learn alot. The graphic punctuations were the most helpful to me. Occasionally a popup graphic would explain or expand upon a point being covered. If, like me, you know absolutely nothing about guitar playing I think he could have explained more and showed power chords for starting.
