Rockschool Guitar Grade 1 (2018) Paperback – 29 Aug. 2018

Great book, recommended by my guitar tutor. Easy to learn tunes. Well worth it

Used for sons Guitar lessons

My daughters guitar teacher recommended this music book so we bought one.After several months my daughter was ready to consider doing her electric guitar grade one exam.Her music teacher explained that registering for the exam was done online by us. My 14 year old created an account on the Rock school website ( very straight forward ) and was given a choice of places locally where she could sit the exam and dates convenient to us. We chose the Norwich venue which was perfect. A month later she received the confirmation of date for her exam which was two weeks later. She passed, result.All in all we can find no fault with this system, it worked really well for my daughter...

The Rockschool scheme is a good, unfussy way to work through guitar tuition and grading. Each stage involves playing set pieces from established rock songs as well as specially written songs that cover the basics of guitar technique. Unlike other music grading systems, the Rockschool scheme allows you just to play guitar and not to have to sing or do any other non-guitar types of musical performance. as part of grading.This Grade 1 book has now been replaced (the 2018 edition) but the format remains the same - also included is a download code that allows access to all the tracks in the book as full band versions or just backing tracks (with or without timing clicks) to practice alongside.Recommended.

My ten year old is already having acoustic lessons and decided he'd like to learn the electric guitar too. This is the first book I've bought, and so far so good. The pieces are written out in both notation and tab form - so what looks complicated in notation often turns out to be much simpler when you look at the tab - this is a great encouragement.Amp settings are discussed, improvisation is introduced and there's a section on power chords.This is designed to accompany grades, but even though he won't be doing those this tutor is still proving to be very useful as an introductory guide.

I like the content of the book, used for guitar lesson of my son

The only problem was it didn't come with a cd so my son has to listen to music on my laptop, and you only get 5 downloads and I messed the first 2 up

Nothing much can go wrong here. All arrived in time as expected.

Good

Llevo desde octubre con este método. Primero hice el grado debut y ahora este. He pasado de no saber nada de guitarra a tocar tres o cuatro cosillas. No es gran cosa, pero no he tenido que tirarme horas solfeando ni cosas por el estilo. Las canciones están pensadas para aprender diferentes cosas de la guitarra poco a poco.

Für meine E-Gitarren-Schüler ist diese Buchreihe von "Rockschool" genial. Sie lernen das Umschalten von Akkorden auf Singlenote-Lines und haben mit den Playbacks, die man sich downloaden kann, sofort das Gefühl, wie in einer echten Band zu spielen. Auch auf die jeweiligen Stilistiken wird, was die klangliche Umsetzung sowohl von der Gitarre als auch von der Verstärkereinstellung her, ziemlich ausführlich eingegangen. Für etwas Hintergrund muss der Lehrer evtl. noch in punkto Skalen sorgen.Was ich auch sehr schön finde: die Schwierigkeit steigt wirklich von Stück zu Stück und auch von Buch zu Buch relativ kontinuierlich an.Empfehlenswert für alle Schüler, die vielleicht schon etwas Erfahrung auf der akustischen Gitarre haben.

Este curso es el que me dan en clase, el libro me ayuda mucho, es perfecto

Great and full of staffs. reached within aforesaid period.
