Section 1: Getting Started

In the Beginner Guitar Lessons Course by Paul Gronow you'll begin by looking at how to set up a successful 'How To Study Guitar Programme', that'll help you to establish & set your unique goal/s & the steps you'll want to take.

Once this is set you'll then move onto looking at the parts of a guitar & tuning the guitar. Then once the guitar is in tune, discover the individual notes on the guitar fretboard (the importance of the Chromatic Scale) & play the notes up to the 5th fret on each guitar string.

This section will conclude with a useful recap & Quiz.

Section 2: Guitar Chords

In addition to learning the notes on your guitar fretboard you'll want to learn guitar chords as they allow us guitarists' to create & play songs.

Firstly, you'll master how to read a guitar chord chart, then work through with me Paul Gronow as you learn to form & perfect chord shapes such as major, minor, Major 7th , 7th, diminished, minor 7 flat 5 & power chords.

Time is taken to show you how to best form a chord as well as how to move between chords; these tips are priceless & highly effective.

This section will conclude with a useful recap & Quiz.

Section 3: Reading & Playing Rhythm

Your guitar toolkit will certainly start to grow by this point, what with your knowledge & skills added around, the parts of the guitar, tuning a guitar, chromatic scale, being able to read, form & play many guitar chords & be able to move around a variety of guitar chords.

This section will take you step-by-step through the essentials of understanding rhythm. This is achieved by looking at what rhythm actually is, learn about & play on your guitar the essential musical notes such as a semibreve, minim, crotchet, quaver & semiquaver. Learn to read rhythm charts as you play along with 27 backing tracks with 27 rhythm patterns; that can be found in music styles such as: Jazz, Rock, Blues, Reggae, Country & Funk styles.

Learn how to play popular major, minor, 7th, M7 & m7b5 along with guitar tab & a backing tracks with a click track.

Well it'll now be time to learn about & apply 5 popular chord progressions across 3 major scales. You'll discover that chords are grouped together into scales, (more about this in Section 5), but for now learn that chord progressions are use to move around the related chords in a scale such as C major, D major & G major.

By learning this you'll get to hear chords that sound great for you to possibly used to create music & songs & secondly understand a little more about music theory & music composition.

???

Okay, so that just leaves Section 5. So what of it?

Well, there's one large gap in the learning & that is (for some) the dreaded topic of music theory!!! Music theory is often seen as the elephant in the room, the topic not discussed, not required, well if you feel that there has been a barrier stopping you learning music theory then I have great news for you!

For many years I didn't feel comfortable around music theory, it wasn't until I wanted to take teaching guitar a little more seriously in the early 90's that I decided to teach myself guitar music theory…

Soon enough, I began to discover that it was in fact possible (although if not hard, time consuming & expensive as I had to purchase a lot of books etc to teach myself music theory as a guitarist) if you work hard.

Many decades on I now understand the benefit of learning the essentials of guitar music theory & particularly from a guitarists perspective; I can now read & play other people's music as well as being able to create my own.

So why not join me in this beginner guitar course & discover the essential guitar music theory toolkit today…

So just what's involved in learning guitar music theory?

This section will conclude with a useful recap & Quiz.

Learn that the chords we play & the notes we use as musicians are all related & they all stem from the master scale the Chromatic Scale.

In the section you'll discover, that the Chromatic scale is used to form major scales using a scale template & that the chords we use are created using only the notes in the major scale.

Your guitar music theory education will be developed within the time it takes to work through 15 minutes of study; of course you'll want to start & pause.

This section will conclude with a useful recap & Quiz.
