Alfred's PLAY: Acoustic Guitar 2: Guitar DVD

Immediate and accessible. Expert instruction arrives on your schedule, removing barriers to consistent learning while maintaining the personalized feedback quality that makes private study valuable.

Acoustic guitarists of all levels who want self-directed instruction in rock, jazz, blues, folk, country, or mixed genres. This works equally well for students building foundational technique, weekend players refining specific skills, and advancing players seeking expert guidance on style-specific approaches.

• Pause the video frequently to practice each technique separately before moving forward; rushing through to keep pace with the instructor undermines the learning process.
• Use a music stand positioned so you can see both the DVD and your fretboard simultaneously, minimizing head movement between instructor and instrument.
• Practice the demonstrated passages daily between viewing sessions rather than watching multiple lessons in one sitting.

Assign segments to students between lessons as reinforcement of techniques taught in your studio, or use it as a supplemental resource for students whose lesson frequency is limited by schedule or budget constraints.

• Acoustic guitar technique specific to multiple genres
• Self-directed practice strategies
• Visual learning from demonstration-based instruction
• Style-specific playing approaches (rock, jazz, blues, folk, country)
