Getting to Know Your Guitar
Let's begin by going over all of the important parts of our guitar and making sure our terminology is correct.

Excellent detail and highly recommended
I’ve been playing for decades and I have some nice guitars, but I never took the time to study regarding repair and maintenance. Was just about to buy a tech course when it dawned on me that there might be one in here. So glad I found this and so far so good. Really methodical process to this course and I’m learning a lot. I just bought a Martin acoustic and the humidity made the action too low and the section on humidity was helpful to have a better understanding of what’s going on. Definitely going to take humidity control more seriously in and out of the case. Also looking forward to the information on what to look for before buying used Guitars. For some reason, I can’t give it a score because that section doesn’t let me click or add a star rating but I would easily give it five stars.
