Instant Guitar
Author Bernie Sawford
Inspired by my series of books “Play Guitar Today”
This is my ultimate short cut to playing the Guitar
My simple, easy, proven method for teaching absolutely anyone how to play the Guitar in just 30 minutes or less.
*If you are left handed, just substitute left for right when mentioned.

3:PlayTo Play Instant Guitar in 30 Minutes
You Only Need 3 Things.
A Guitar!
Any Guitar Tuner
Why use a Guitar Tuner? Saves you study time, very easy to use, just follow the instructions supplied with it and tune up in seconds! You can use this book without tuning your Guitar but you will sound like you are stroking a Cat with a bag of sharp nails – Not Pleasant!
A Pick (Plectrum)
Optional Extras for the Electric Guitar
Any Amp Set of Jack Leads
Instant Guitar is not about teaching you how to use all the equipment needed to play certain types of Guitars, as this would be a book in itself!
However: Plug your lead into the Guitar and Amp, turn all the controls on the Guitar to full, all the controls on the Amp to halfway, this will give you some sound. Now twiddle about with the controls to your hearts content until you get a sound you like!
Top Tip: When you get a sound you like write down all the settings on the Amp and Guitar on a sheet of paper so you can remember how you created that sound.
The 6 Steps to holding the Pick
When you get to step 4 gently push the pick between your thumb and 1st finger as shown in step 5, you need to grip the pick firmly but not like its in a vice! If when you start playing it flips out just increase your grip a little more.
Holding the Guitar
Sitting Position
Standing Position
When sitting to play, sit in a straight-backed chair or the edge of a bed, cross your right leg over the left leg and let the Guitar rest in your lap.
When Standing adjust the strap so the Guitar is level with your belt line.
