This Rock Guitar for the Young Beginner book from Mel Bay was created with young guitar students in mind. This book provides information and exercises covering the basic essentials of rock guitar. The hip songs and etudes make learning fun. Subjects such as open chords, power chords, barre chords, rock scales, arpeggios and slash chords are all presented with fun songs and graded learning. The accompanying online audio, featuring a great rhythm section, is fun to jam with and allows students to hear how the study pieces should be played.
