The heart of Guitar Method is the Fretronome and the song library. The Fretronome is an illustrated layout of a guitar's fretboard--its six strings and the frets behind which you place your fingers. The view is as if you were looking down at your own fingers on the neck (the view can be adjusted to suit left-handed players). Circled numbers on the strings indicate the chord patterns and associated fingers, and the chords change as the chosen song from the song library is played. The song library contains about 75 songs, from standards like "Greensleeves" and "Amazing Grace" to pop classics like "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" and "La Bamba." Just below the Fretronome is the notation for the song. You can choose either tablature or standard music notation.
After you've selected a song, just click the play icon and select the tempo comfortable for you. As the song progresses, you'll see the chord fingerings change on the Fretronome, and the current notes and chords in the notation are highlighted in red. You can change the tempo, pause at any time, or skip around in the song to work on select parts. Double-click in the notation to bring up that section on the Fretronome. If you wish, you can follow the 60 lessons provided, learning at your own pace. Its all very intuitive, thorough, and easy to use.
Is your axe slightly out of tune? Bring up the tuner from the menu bar and tune up. Want to learn or practice specific chords by themselves? From the menu bar, simply click to launch the Chord Dictionary, an illustrated view of dozens of chords from A Major to G#7 with a suspended 4th. Use the Metronome to practice playing in tempo. Practice specific techniques like syncopation, muting, and how to hold a pick.
There wasn't much to not like about Guitar Method. If you're looking for a way to learn to play, pick this CD-ROM up. You can take our advice, or take it from rock legend/late night television pitchman Peter Frampton. Guitar Method is truly an original, impressive instruction package. We believe you'll be inspired to write your own hit songs in no time. --John Bosch

Customer Reviews of eMedia Guitar Method 1 v1.2
Well worth the price Prior to purchasing this product I had never even touched a guitar even though I had always wanted to learn to play one. It took me about 3 weeks to get through the entire course (slow actually) and by the time I had finished I was playing. I've been practicing and playing on my own since finishing the course 3 months ago and can play well enough to keep up with my dad who's played all his life.
The course layout is simple and easy to follow. Each section builds on the previous sections using chords and techiques covered in those earlier sections. The animated fretboard and chord chart make the course that much easier to use. I can highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to learn to play the guitar.
This is a Great Product well worth the price
This is an excellent program to get you started learning guitar. It covers many style and types of music and builds confidence in that it allows you to actually play along with the instructor. It covers the basics in different struming techniques, and fingerstyles, and is designed for those who don't know how to read music, although it includes a section for those who want to learn. The guitar tuner is worth the price alone. I finished it in a matter of weeks, and have gone on to the second in the series and also the bass program. Very user friendly.
This thing is great!
I had a guitar given to me many years ago but, I had never played. After getting this software installed, I was tuned and playing in under half an hour learning the chords and the finger positions. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to learn the guitar. 2 other things on amazon I would recommend with this software: Pick the Right Guitar : The Guitar Buyer's Handbook and The Guitar Handbook. With these resources you'll be well on the way to playing like the legends.
