From the Author

This method developed as a result of my students asking how I was able to learn songs by ear. During my weekly guitar lessons I would allow students to bring a tape or CD of a song they wanted to learn. I would listen to the song and write out the parts for my students. When they asked how I could do this, I used to tell them it comes with time. Still, students kept asking how they could learn to play by ear, so I put a system together. I've used this system with my private students for almost 10 years to date, (currently July 2005). Here's how it works in class: For part of a lesson, I'll have a music student face away from me. I'll tell them the general area where I'll be playing a note. example: First string, between the open and 4th fret. This gives the student five choices, open, 1st fret, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. I'll play a note and let the student find it. The lessons progressively advance as we go on until the student can play every note and note combination on every string. The results have been amazing! It has even worked with people who thought they were tone deaf. The Complete Guitar By Ear and Complete Bass Guitar By Ear CDs are the same lessons I teach my private students. Having seen the effectiveness of this method on all of my students I can honestly say I wish I had these CDs when I first started learning to play the guitar!
