The Learn To Play Acoustic Guitar

This full-sized, six-string acoustic guitar and instructional DVD provide an easy way for beginning enthusiasts to learn to play. Folk musician Happy Traum, who famously collaborated with legends Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger in 1963, guides you step-by-step on the DVD through tuning (using the included pitch pipe), basic strumming techniques, two- and three-chord melodies, as well as guitar standards such as He's Got The Whole World In His Hands and The Old Gray Goose. Made with a traditional select spruce top with mahogany back and sides, the guitar's "dreadnought" soundbox produces rich, powerful tones. The slim mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard facilitates smooth transitions between chords. The body is decorated with a rosette around the sound hole as well as pick guard and coated in a high gloss finish that won't fade or crack. Its six die-cast machine heads provide precise tuning. Includes two flat picks, strap, and carrying bag. Ages 13 and up. 40" L x 15 1/2" Diam. x 5" D. (5 lbs.)
