It starts at absolute beginner level and progresses to Initial/Preparatory Grade. The method is set out in sixteen stages and contains original pieces and traditional tunes in an array of styles including classical, folk and world music as well as well-known favourite film and TV themes such as James Bond, Batman and The Flintstones. There is a thorough introduction to standard notation, with sections on chords and TAB, whilst ensemble pieces are ideal for group teaching, including ‘Wider Opportunities’. Accompaniment parts and teachers’ notes are available in Guitar Basics Teacher’s Book , and the fun backing tracks are available to download online. The companion book, Guitar Basics Repertoire , provides over 40 fun solos and ensemble pieces for both individual and group learning. It is designed to consolidate material learnt in the Guitar Basics Tutor and present new topics, including accidentals, moving up the neck, two-part music, arpeggios and plucked chords. Review: Great book for primary school age kids - I teach guitar 5 days a week and I consistently find myself using this book to teach any kids learning classical guitar. This book is ideally suited to kids up to about the age of 10/11 and is far superior to other similar publications (like the Guitarist's Way series). The main selling point for the book is the CD which is full of lots of entertaining and varied backing tracks that make learning pieces that would otherwise be fairly lifeless, such as playing melodies on the open strings, fun. The layout is logical and clear and it guides the learner carefully through each stage without any big jumps difficulty from page to page. Review: Amazing series of books! - My older son started learning guitar from this book at the age of 7, while my other son started at the age of 6. The method of learning is just amazing, with lots of fun. My older son have completed the whole series (including the Guitar basics repertoire and Guitar basics workouts). He has learned so much staff, that, after that, his teacher started him at Grade 4 of Rock School Electric Guitar. Can't recommend enough! ## Features - Guitar Basics With CD ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 16,847 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 4 in Strings Songbooks 18 in Guitars 30 in String Instruments (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,900 Reviews | ## Images ![Guitar Basics Workouts - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718DuD+TdIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book for primary school age kids *by J***S on 3 February 2013* I teach guitar 5 days a week and I consistently find myself using this book to teach any kids learning classical guitar.

The method of learning is just amazing, with lots of fun. My older son have completed the whole series (including the Guitar basics repertoire and Guitar basics workouts).

Can't recommend enough! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***R on 27 November 2012* Really simple for kids to learn, hard for children to learn guitar at times when they are so small but this is nice and simple for them and carefully thought out. There could be more explanation on guitar chords for me and i feel these should be introduced earlier although i don't think it matters too much exactly what order you teach the book in. ## Frequently Bought Together - Guitar Basics: A Landmark Guitar Method for Individual and Group Learning, Book & CD (Faber Edition: Basics) - Guitar Basics Repertoire: Guitar Tab --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/47886973-guitar-basics-workouts](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/47886973-guitar-basics-workouts) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
