Intro to the Guitar by Steve Postell
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
If you’ve ever dreamed of learning to play the guitar, this is your chance.
Award-winning singer-guitarist, STEVE POSTELL, will get you started on your guitar playing path and guide you through all the fundamentals from how to hold and tune a guitar to how to pick, strum, and improvise your own solos.
You’ll learn how to read chord charts and guitar “tab” and how to play such classic tunes as “Peaceful Easy Feeling”, “House of the Rising Sun”, “Long Time Gone”, and “Teach Your Children.” You’ll learn to master the dreaded “bar” chords (they’re really not that hard!) and then spice up your playing with some fancy strumming and fingerpicking patterns. You’ll learn to play along while Steve sings and jam while Steve backs you up. And by the end of this lesson series, you’ll be ready to play thousands of popular songs on your own like a true guitar hero.
“Intro to the Guitar by Steve Postell” offers over 145 minutes of lesson time, accompanied by musical notation, chord charts, lyrics and guitar tablature synchronized to Steve’s playing. You get the entire lesson series for $9.99 (a fraction of what a musician of Steve’s caliber would charge for a private lesson). There are no subscriptions charges or hidden fees. And you can keep and reuse these lessons as long as you want. The app even offers a digital tuner and metronome at no additional charge.
ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY.
If you’ve ever tried to learn to play the guitar using DVD’s, websites or books, you’re in for an entirely new experience. “Intro to the Guitar” uses the same technology as our flagship app, “On the Music Path”, which has garnered rave reviews from users and critics as the most “elegant” and “user-friendly” music instruction app they’ve ever seen:
• Close-up shots on the teacher’s hands make sure you don’t miss a thing.
• Tab and notation scrolls automatically, synchronized to the teacher’s playing.
• Tap anywhere in the notation to jump to that exact spot in the lesson.
• Swipe left or right to skip through a lesson’s chapters.
• Set your own in and out points to loop a particular segment.
• You can even slow the video down and practice at your own pace or record yourself and hear how well you’re doing.
