Attention Beginning Guitar Players and Teachers! On release, The Best Guitar Method received the #1 New Release rating from Amazon because it offers a new approach to the traditions established by publishers like Hal Leonard, Mel Bay and Alfred. You will learn the real guitar skills you need to play the songs you love. Your purchase includes the 218-page instruction book, plus 118 online videos, 355 online audio recordings, and several printable resources. And, you will also have access to a dynamic database of popular songs organized according to the skills you have developed from the book and videos.
You will be learning from Brian Rivers himself, who is an accomplished musician with decades of experience in teaching guitar to beginners of all ages. You will learn the same time-tested strategies that have led to many of Brian’s former students going on to become professional musicians. These learning strategies are delivered with warmth and humor to support you in conquering your challenges as you become the guitarist you have always wanted to be!
The author, Brian Rivers, is a professional recording and performing guitarist who has formal training in music education from the prestigious University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. While some teachers see themselves as being on a pedestal, Brian’s goal is to lift YOU onto the pedestal! Brian explains, I have always been frustrated by the available beginning guitar method books because of the disconnect between their outdated approach to teaching guitar, and what really works in developing students into guitar players—and so I wrote The Best Guitar Method. I like to think of The Best Guitar Method as a ‘craft’ publication that bridges the worlds of popular guitar and music education to a far greater degree than the cookie-cutter method books marketed by commercial music publishers.
Frequently thought of as the “Bob Ross” of guitar education, Brian delivers the entire multi-media package in a way that feels encouraging and accessible. Finally, you have access to a guitar method that really works! The Best Guitar Method is guaranteed to excite aspiring guitarists!
