Too many beginners get frustrated and quit the guitar. Why? Because the left hand - the hand that makes the chords - is too hard at first in standard tuning.DADGAD tuning solves that problem. You can make beautiful chords easily with just one or two fingers This frees you up to focus on the right hand, the hand that generates the rhythm. And thats going to make it possible for you to sound like a real guitar player right from the start.In this video, Alan Dworsky gives you clear instruction that goes nice and slow, step by bite-sized step, in lessons that are as beautiful musically as they are visually. Every chord, technique, and pattern is shown from a players eye view and a side view, and all are illustrated in backyard musical performances by Al and Indie-award-winning guitarist Dean Magraw.
