Douglas Niedt Gives You His No-Risk, Nothing-to-Lose, Money-Back Guarantee
These are the best video/internet lessons with the finest hi-tech production on the planet. But, if you are not satisfied with this course, I will refund your money.
Just tell me why you didn’t like it so I can make it better for others.

Five versions of the score and three hours of detailed instructional videos. All this for only $29.95.

If you are thinking this is a fantastic deal, you are right. Where on this planet can you get three hours of lessons for $29.95? Although it is a beginning piece, learning it with a teacher would cost you well over a hundred dollars. Even then, you wouldn't receive the detailed, comprehensive instruction you will receive here.

In fact, I have been teaching this piece to students for 40 years! I have included every problem one student or another has had in learning this piece. In other words, this is not theoretical, pedantic dribble. At least one real student has had a problem with every detail I cover here! And every one of those students was given the solution presented here to fix that problem, and it worked.

Playing at a high artistic level is not for advanced guitarists only. Beginners should aspire to it too. With thorough instruction, they too can Play It Like a Pro.

Here is a sample of the annotated score.

The annotated score is marked measure by measure with detailed instructions on finger preparation, left and right-hand fingering, how to connect chord changes, and much more. By the way, the sample below is a web image. The PDF version you receive will be crystal clear.
