Description

Play is a guitar tuition resource for anyone wanting to learn the fundamental techniques of guitar playing. Whether you don't know where to begin or you're struggling with rhythm and looking to develop the answer is Play!

The authors, Nigel and Nick, have been teaching people to play guitar for years with an emphasis on training up worship leaders. Here, they have drawn from their experiences to write a book that really meets the needs of the developing guitarist. Consequently, Play is a no-nonsense guitar tutition book that cuts to the chase.

Play covers strumming, chords and rhythm and uses some of the most popular worship songs from the last few years to explain and develop techniques. There is also an accompanying CD containing strumming exercises featured in the book.
