| The
most frequently asked question!
95% of all Guitar College students find the
College Starter Pack which includes
Theory & Technique Vol. 1 and Rhythm Guitar the
most effective starting point.
This combination
works efficiently for almost every student whether
you're a relatively new guitar student, you’ve played
guitar for years without formal music education or
you have a degree in music and starting guitar as
a new instrument. These courses briefly cover some
basics in music then build quickly in difficulty like
a snowball.
Some information
may be familiar to you, don’t bypass it, use it as
a refresher course for quicker progress. It may be
presented differently than before because it’s now
specifically related to guitar and it’s reorganized
for easier comprehension.
