In fact, I was thoroughly convinced I did not have what it takes to be able to play music. <br /> <br />I took cello lessons and failed miserable. I took piano lessons without making much progress. I sort of learned to play the recorder in school, if you can call playing hot cross buns playing. <br /> <br />What I’m getting at is that I was a <i>terrible</i> musician. I couldn’t sing, I couldn’t keep time, I couldn’t play an instrument, the list of things I couldn’t do with respect to music is long. <br /> <br />I found this particularly frustrating because my father is an absolutely fantastic professional saxophone player. I figured somewhere in me there had to be an inherent talent for music. <br /> <br /><b>I was <i>very</i> wrong.</b> <br /> <br />What I realized as I grew older was that my father didn’t have an inherent musical talent either. What he did have was an unstoppable drive to succeed. <br /> <br />It took me a few years to get over my false idea that I could never be a good musician. <br /> <br />A few years earlier my father had bought me a guitar as a Christmas present. It was sitting in a dusty case in my room, neglected. <br /> <br />I had recently met a man named Jacob, another amazing musician. Jacob’s talent was with string instruments, particularly the bass. I asked his advice about what I should learn first. <br /> <br />He told me to learn music theory, so I went online and began to read. I read a lot and started to teach myself scales. I was still really terrible at the guitar, but I kept at it, and slowly I improved. <br /> <br /><b>I stress the word slowly.</b> <br /> <br />A couple weeks into this process I asked Jacob to teach me guitar, and he said he would. I quickly found out that Jacob–despite being a wonderful player–is a horrible teacher. <br /> <br />Jacob cannot think like a beginner, he cannot break down the knowledge and present it in bite sized pieces that are easy to swallow and digest. <br /> <br /><b>I wrote this book with that in mind.</b> <br /> <br />During the process of teaching myself the guitar, I learned a lot about <i>how</i> to teach guitar. I applied what I learned to write my best-selling guitar series: <b><i>Scott's Simple Guitar Lessons.</i></b> <br /> <br />I’m still learning today. Music is extremely complicated and eclectic. I know for a fact that I will never master music, but that was never my goal. <br /> <br />My goal was to be able to play with other people and enjoy doing it. <br /> <br />I've achieved that goal, and it was worth the work. <br /> <br /><b>Now I want to help you achieve your musical goals, no matter what they are.</b> <br /> <br />I want to use what I learned the slow, hard way to make your learning process <i>fast and easy.</i> <br /> <br />All the best, <br />Scott J.
