Why would you want to download guitar lessons rather than getting a physical product or an actual teacher? Well, the answer is simple, really.

When you download your guitar instructions, you will have the option of easy and instant access, and you can get your instructions at a pace that you will be able to follow on your own, and won’t have to worry about ’slacking up.’ Basically, you get a guitar instructor all to yourself, but get to see him/her as many times as you need, until you’ve learned the particular lesson. That’s a huge benefit when you download guitar lessons.

Another huge benefit is that because there’s no physical product to deliver, the instructions will normally be cheaper and easier to find. If that doesn’t make sense for you, then basically, in a nutshell, this means that the publisher making the guitar instructions doesn’t have to worry about packaging, shipping and handling, or the costs of making a physical product, so they can charge quite a bit less for their product and still come through making a profit. This is win win for everyone!

So, what are some good options when you download guitar lessons?

There are dozens upon dozens of downloadable guitar instructions courses on the internet, but, in my experience(I’ve had the pleasure to get to try out each of these courses myself), the one product that happens to reign supreme is Jamorama. Jamorama offers so much content and bang for your buck, and is an instant download. Basically, you can sign up for a week’s worth of lessons for FREE, then when you decide that you like your instructions that they give you, you can buy them very inexpensively, and have around 2 years of lessons worth when you download guitar lessons from Jamorama.

Make no mistake about it, these lessons are HIGH quality, and are in no way loaded with “fluff” content. To download guitar lessons from Jamorama, and get the REAL deal when it comes to guitar instructions, go here:

So, what all does this fabulous book have to offer? It comes with the chords to EVERY song by the Beatles, and comes with not only the chords to all 194 Beatles songs, but also the lyrics of them. This is very amazing, and key to actually learning a song. When we want to learn a song, we also want to learn the LYRICS to the songs. Finally a publisher realizes this.

Also coming with this book are the strumming patterns from the actual recordings of The Beatles, in the original keys. Each song comes with the chord symbols, all the guitar chord boxes, and even complete lyrics. A fun and helpful playing guide and full discography of The Beatles songs also come with this book. Very nice!

If you’re used to getting The Beatles chords from the internet, save yourself a lot of time, effort, and printing and get the book. The guitar chords instruction alone is well worth it, especially in such an organized manner. All that could be added to make this book freaking perfect, would be the signature licks or intros from The Beatles, or the signature intros. Often, however, you can work them out from the intro chords given.

So, what book am I talking about? I’m talking about Alfred’s music theory complete - music theory made easy.

A few interesting things to note about this book, is that it’s really three books in one! It has three comprehensive sections to it which build upon the last, ensuring that you will know all there is to know about music theory by the time you’re done. Each section is around 40 pages(some are a bit more), and has an accompanying CD to go along with it. At the end of each chapter, there are tests that you are to complete before you go ahead to the next chapter(to make sure that you understand everything that is being taught in the course).

So, what range of topics can you expect from alfred’s music theory complete that makes music theory made easy?

This book claims to be a complete  self-study course for all musicians, and in my opinion, it does not fail to do that.

In the first section, it has 6 units which are broken into different chapters all on their own. Ranging from learning the staff, how to read and write musical notation(Unit 1), to reading the different time signatures and ties and slurs(unit 3) ending with flats, sharps, naturals, and Enharmonic notes.

Unit 2 goes into tetrachords and major scales, and ends with triads, scale degree names, and the dominant 7th chord. In between there, you’ll find information on scales, intervals, 16th notes, 16th rests, and even more time signatures.

The final unit, unit 3, begins with Triad Inversions, Figured Bass, Major Chord Progressions, delves into harmonizing a melody in a major key, broken chords and arpeggiated accompaniments, composing a melody in a major key, and ends with give you all you need to write music, and the different types of writing music.

Each chapter also has ear training to go with it, as well. The book goes well into the theory of music much deeper than that, but if I were to write it all out, this would be more than just a review!

So if you want music theory made easy, and you want the real deal, go ahead and check out the link below. Have a good day!
