The hour long DVD in this package is just incredible!! It is laid out very well, pretty much following the book exactly. The visual is the ultimate learning tool. We really like how the DVD illustrates the basic notes and chords with the camera from the player's perspective, showing you the view as if you were looking down at your hands. We feel this is vital. Multiple camera angles really made this DVD for us, along with the professional backing tracks. In our opinion this is the best beginner DVD around!
