My Guitar is a unique program that offers an exciting way for kids ages 6 and up to learn how to play acoustic guitar. The program features multimedia lessons that guide children with full-motion video demonstrations, and creatively uses interactive games to teach chords. The animated Gary the Guitar leads kids through the over 60 lessons by Kevin Garry, Ph.D. My Guitar covers the basics, such as holding and tuning the guitar, and moves on to playing chords, songs and reading tablature notation. An animated fretboard shows kids where to put their fingers as the live recorded audio plays. With MIDI tracks the speed of the music can be adjusted so each child can learn at his or her own pace. Handy tools such as an automatic tuner, metronome, chord dictionary and digital recorder are all included. My Guitar is the complete program that will get your child playing guitar! Built-in accessories: Automatic Tuner: Kids can easily tune their own guitar. Chord Dictionary: Includes fingering charts and audio playback for over 250 chords to make learning new songs easy. Digital Metronome: Kids can keep a steady beat with audio and/or visual feedback. Digital Recorder: Allows kids to record and play themselves back for friends and family to hear! Research has proven that children who play a musical instrument do better in school, form friendships more easily and gain self-confidence. Get your child started playing with the easy and fun way to learn – eMedia My Guitar!

This is a great instructional tool which I recommend to my guitar students. But it took six weeks to arrive this time!

Bought this program for my 8 year old son. It's fun and easy way to learn how to play a guitar. The digital tuner is amazing, other features are absolutely great, the kid is enjoying it.
Can't wait for "My Electric Guitar" to come!
