Description:
"How to Totally Understand Guitar Theory Super-Fast!"
100% GUARANTEED RESULTS! "
Whether you have little or absolutely no experience in music theory, this book will show you the PROVEN way to quickly and easily MASTER the theory you MUST KNOW.

Up until now, learning music theory could be very time consuming, boring, confusing and difficult. Some books present music theory in an intimidating way and show you absolutely no application to the guitar.
It's no wonder that so many guitarists have tried to learn music theory only to quit out of sheer frustration.
There are lots of music theory books on the market today, but very few are written for the guitarist. Those that are, either have far too little information to be of any real use for guitarists, or they get really bogged down on the nitty-gritty details.
The Absolute Essentials of Music Theory for Guitar is a book created to:
1.Dramatically simplify the process of learning music theory.
2. Make it extremely practical for YOU the guitarist.
The Absolute Essentials of Music Theory for Guitar is the distillation of what author Don MacLean have taught guitar students just like you.
"I got sick and tired of having to recommend that my students buy this textbook and that one, and that other one, and still have to give them a stack of handouts to show how to apply the concepts to the guitar. I wanted to have one source that would give my students all the beginner and intermediate theory that they absolutely needed to know."
" I have always been fascinated by how we learn music, so I also completed a degree in psychology and did some graduate studies in neuroscience as well. With all of this intensive studying and practicing, I have discovered some little known secrets that will save you massive amounts of time and give you results you never thought possible. "
