{GIVEAWAY} The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Guitar Exercises


A recent study released by the University of Toronto and McMaster University shows that participation in music lessons at an early stage in life can help improve a child's memory and learning ability by encouraging different patterns of brain development. Together, parents and children can exercise their brains while strengthening their guitar skills with The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Guitar Exercises.

The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Guitar Exercises provides new and experienced guitarists with practice needed to take playing to the next level. The guide includes a wide variety of exercises designed to build strength, endurance, dexterity, and technique, including single note, string-to-string, minor and major scales, harmonic and melodic minor scales, major and minor pentatonic and blues scales, chord progression exercises and melodic patterns. The guide is accompanied by an audio CD featuring over 150 samples of the exercises featured in the book.

About the Author:

I teach and have several kids who play around with the guitar (we have no band or music classes). I'd keep this in my room for checkout.
