Reviews
Where's the acoustic guitar?I have no problem with the content of this DVD, except that the first thing that comes up is a statement that an electric guitar not an acoustic guitar will be used by the instructor. So why call this "Getting Started on Acoustic Guitar"? As a beginner, I want an example of the kind of instrument I'm using even if the strings are the same.
