Bert Weedon's Play in a Day remains one of the world's most successful guitar methods. It is as much of a legend as the stars who have learned from it, including Eric Clapton, Mike Oldfield, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, John Lennon, Sting, Brian May, Pete Townshend, and many others!

Play in a Day is easy to use and includes plenty of tips for selecting the right guitar, the correct amplifier, how to hold your instrument, and plenty of exercises and tunes to play!

Pick A Chord follows the ethos of Weedon's hugely influential Play In A Day book and DVD, giving guitarists the tools needed to start playing from day one. An essential chord dictionary that every guitarist should have in their gigbag, it contains basic major/minor chords for the beginner through to extended/jazz chords for the advanced player. Unlike other chord dictionaries Pick A Chord gives invaluable advice on rhythm, major/minor chord definition, barre chords and the 12 bar blues, making Weedon's 'short-cut' method to playing guitar as simple and engaging as possible.

In this remarkable DVD, the world-renowned master guitarist unlocks the secrets of the guitar.
