Book 2 of 9: First 15 Lessons
Synopsis
First 15 Lessons - Acoustic Guitar by Troy Nelson is a beginner-focused instructional songbook designed for players starting from the very first steps. Created for new guitarists and self-learners, it combines structured, step-by-step lessons with real songs, making it suitable for both independent study and guided instruction.
Written in easy-to-follow rhythm TAB notation, this acoustic guitar guide introduces essential techniques while helping players connect learning with recognizable music. It is designed specifically for beginners, providing a clear foundation in both playing and basic music reading without overwhelming complexity.
The book includes 15 progressive lessons supported by online audio tracks and video lessons, along with access to a free online tuner and metronome. Across its lessons, players explore core topics such as chords, strumming patterns, arpeggios, fingerpicking, alternate picking, harmonics, and basic music theory. With 31 song excerpts and arrangements, learners can apply each concept in a practical, musical way rather than relying on exercises alone.
By blending technique with familiar repertoire, this guide helps build confidence and consistency in early practice.
