CF Guitar Lesson: Get A Fun Start To Learning Guitar With 2 Chord Songs

Some beginner guitar students end up quitting lessons because the initial process of learning to play can be too slow and not very gratifying. In fact, even the best video guitar lesson programs risk losing the interest of young students if they offer too much information in preparation for getting to the fun stuff.
