Thanks so much! Dave People pointed out that the bass line was wrong and when I checked it I noticed the Am chord was wrong. It should be a G instead of E on alternating note. I tried to correct the tab and messed it all up. It sounds ok the way it is but it bugs me. Maybe Ill take it down and start over. Sorry, Dave

"Thank you so much for this course. I don’t know if you plan on doing any more songs but I would definitely like to be first on the list when you do. I can almost play Let It Be and I can’t wait to get to Brown Eyed Girl." Matt Scroggins – (after just 1 day of using A.S.A.Piano)

Imagine the thrill you would get as you made your way through playing your own one hour repertoire of classic, popular songs on piano.

Imagine the look on the faces of your family and friends when you suddenly surprise them by playing songs that they know and love.

Just imagine what it would feel like if you were able to truly express yourself through playing piano or keyboard.

If you really want to be able to do all these things then A.S.A.Piano is the perfect course for you.

Having taught piano for over 8 years I understand just how difficult it can be for beginners to get beyond the early stages of learning piano through traditional lessons.

Progress can be far too slow for most people because traditional teaching methods insist on beginners spending months learning scales and theory first, before putting these skills into practice and actually playing a recognizable tune.

What most beginners actually want to be able to do first is play music. It’s why they have decided to take up piano or keyboard.

Motivation, enthusiasm & enjoyment is the real key to success when learning piano or keyboard and this is achieved by quickly reaching short-term goals.

If you’re looking for a high-end acoustic beginner guitar, an excellent choice is the Seagull S6, costing about $400-$500. It may be more expensive than what most beginners are prepared to pay, but it is an exceptional guitar for the price. Even professionals often keep their Seagull S6 after they’ve purchased many other guitars. Another good high-end acoustic beginner guitar is the Washburn D10S. Acoustic Guitar magazine voted it #1 for guitars under $500. Most people looking in this price range will end up choosing the Washburn or the Seagull.

Excellent choices if you want to spend a bit less include Yamahas F310, Takamines G-240 and Fenders DG7. For a rock-bottom price in an acoustic beginner guitar, you will want to look at Epiphones DR-100. You’ll have to switch to a more advanced instrument down the road, since its only meant for rookies, but you’ll get a really good buy for somewhere between $120 and $150.

Don’t waste your money on those cheap guitars you can find for under $100 at the local discount store. Even an experienced player would have trouble with these. They’re poorly made and often have an overly high action, as there tends to be too much space between the strings and the fingerboard. A cheap guitar is frustrating and not fun to play, so buy a good quality acoustic beginner guitar.

If you were planning on spending around $100 or less, a second hand acoustic beginner guitar is a good option. One of the benefits would be the guitar having some character. Take for example, two second hand Yamaha F310′s. Try them both out as they will likely have distinctly different sounds. These sounds may even give you some insight on the personality of who owned the guitar before.

Ever hear the saying, “never buy a guitar from a jerk”? Whether a guitar picks up a “personality” from it’s owner is a point to be debated, however most guitar owners treat their instruments like people. So when you look for your first acoustic beginner guitar keep this in mind. Pay attention to the guitar’s “vibe”, and even if it sounds great, but doesn’t feel right somehow, pass on it.

When you are buying your first acoustic beginner guitar you should ask the salesperson to play it for you. The person selling the guitar should understand you can not yet play the instrument but want to hear what it will sound like when you can. You never know, maybe they are helping the next great guitar player to buy their first instrument.
