The How and the Tao of Folk Guitar Volume One: Getting Started
by Patrick Costello
This is the free online Creative Commons licensed edition of "The How and the Tao of Folk Guitar". "The How and the Tao of Folk Guitar" is a genuine, printed on paper and sold in stores around the world "book". You can buy a copy at the PikWare Publishing web site or from Amazon. It is also available from your local bookstore or music store. The only difference between this document and the book sold in stores is that this one is free. You can read it, send it to a friend, display a copy on your web site and, most of all, use it to learn how to play the guitar without spending a dime. You can even print it out if you wish. However, you will most likely spend more on paper and ink printing it yourself than you would by just buying a copy of the book. There is more I’d like to say. When it comes to the guitar I could literally talk all day, but it’s probably best to let the book do the talking right now. Let’s tune this puppy up and get picking. Patrick Costello 6/10/07
