It is important to keep the guitar silent when the teacher is speaking to the
class.
Follow the directions below when instructed to go to the Rest Position.
0 Lay the guitar flat across your lap with the strings facing down.
0 Lay your hands on the back of the guitar.
0 Stay quiet and still until the teacher asks you to go to the Playing Position.

PLAYING CHORDS
Now let’s try strumming and singing your first two songs.
This book is designed for use with any type of guitar—acoustic or electric. Any of these guitars can be adapted for use in a wide variety
of styles of music. Take some time getting familiar with the individual parts of your guitar as shown on this page.
Beat = The Pulse of Music
ACOUSTIC
Steel-String
The beat of music should be very steady, just like your pulse.

Now let’s try strumming the C chord and singing a tune. The teacher should sing the melody for the class the first time through and then
the class is encouraged to join in. Follow the slashes above the music staff for strumming. Read the music from left to right, as you would
read words in a book. Don’t worry about the music symbols you haven’t seen yet, just sing along with your teacher. Soon you’ll learn
more about what they mean.

The strings are numbered 1 through 6 beginning with the thinnest string (the one closest to your knee). Tune each string in sequence
by listening to the correct pitch and slowly turning the tuning key until the sound of the string matches the pitch.

Bridge
Tuning means setting the correct pitch (highness or lowness of sound) of each string. To tune your guitar, you will adjust the pitch of
each string by turning the corresponding tuning key on the head of the instrument. Tightening a string raises a pitch, and loosening it
lowers the pitch. See page 92 for different tuning methods.
