The Beginner Acoustic Easy Guitar Songs Volume 4, 5 and 6 DVD's is well suited for beginners who are familiar with playing basic major, minor and 7th chords. Marty has a mix of terrific sounding progressions (chords that work well with one another) and also gives you a variety of different strumming patterns to practice along with these chords. Most of his examples use standard tuning on the guitar (EADGBE), but he mixes things up a little with Drop D tuning (DADGBE) and also flatting each of the notes (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) on the guitar with some of the lessons. I often play using standard tuning, so it was fun for me to try using some different tunings!
If you have been stuck playing basic chords for a while now and looking to spice up your playing, then I think you'll find lots of fun tips and tricks in these DVD's. For example, Marty picks out the bass note of a major chord and "walks down" to the bass note of a minor chord This is a fun technique and the extra movement can make an ordinary chord transition sound much more refined. Although songs are not specifically named, I heard some chord progressions that sounded like Hotel California, La Bamba and other well-known famous songs. For me, it all ties back to songs, and so much fun to see how the chords I already know are used in so many great songs!
In addition to the above techniques, Marty uses examples with a guitar capo which is helpful for beginners. There are some great demonstrations of using harmonics, power chords and open chords, which all have unique sounds, especially on an acoustic guitar. Marty also includes lots of embellishments for use with the basic open position chords. These small movements such as hammer-on's, pull-off's, or adding extra notes to a chord are extremely useful to have in your guitar toolkit, given that so many songs use these standard chords.
Unfortunately, as with my last review, I did have some difficulty loading up one of the DVD's from my set. However, after multiple attempts, I was finally able to get it to play. It could be my DVD player or the quality of the discs (I suspect it was from the disc), but it was bit frustrating that it did not play right away.
In any event, the content of the DVD's were terrific and I really enjoyed going through and practicing this material! Even if you are not a beginner, I think there are some great nuggets of guitar "gold" packed into these lessons and hours worth of songs and strumming exercises await on the Acoustic Easy Guitar Songs 4, 5 and 6 DVD's. As always, Marty continues to use his humor and unique teaching style to make it fun to learn the guitar!
