Description

So want to buy a guitar, but you don't where to start, what questions to ask or what you should be looking for. Worse than that, you actually don't know what you don't know. Course instructor and Swan Music School co-owner, Shaheed Shabazz, has spent the last 8 years selling guitars to people just like you at Guitar Center's flagship store in NYC.

Instead of recording several boring lectures on the subject, Swan Music School has called upon a few of the industry's best. In this course, you will receive shopping tips from CF Martin Guitars' owner Chris Martin IV, Roger Sadowsky of Sadowsky Guitars, Stan Jay of Mandolin Brothers, and more.

Included in this course are several helpful articles written by Laura and Shaheed Shabazz:
