Warner BrosUltimate Beginner Series - Electric Guitar Basics (DVD)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A beginner electric guitar instructional DVD. For someone who just got their first electric and wants to be shown the basics rather than read them.
Strong match
Who this is for
- First-time electric players starting from zero
- Learners who follow along better by watching than reading
- A low-cost first step before paying for lessons
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who already know open chords and basic strumming
- Acoustic-only players — the material is aimed at electric
- Anyone without a DVD player or disc drive
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Beginner level
Starts at the very beginning — holding the guitar, first chords. You will outgrow it once you can play through songs.
Detail 03
Electric guitar focus
Covers electric-specific ground like amps and pickups. Acoustic players will find parts of it irrelevant.
Detail 04
$19.99 price
Less than one lesson. No instructor watching your hands, so bad habits can go uncorrected.
Detail 05
Physical disc format
Works without internet and never expires, but needs a player. Most current laptops have no optical drive.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need an amp to use this?
An electric guitar is quiet unplugged but still playable, so you can follow the fretting and picking. For anything about tone or amp settings you will need an amp.
02Is this good for a kid?
It is beginner-level video instruction, so a child who can sit through a DVD and hold a guitar can follow it. Younger learners usually need an adult keeping them on track.
03Can I use it with a left-handed guitar?
Yes, though demonstrations will be shown right-handed. Left-handed players commonly mirror what they see, which adds a step but works fine at this level.
04Will this teach me songs?
It is a basics course, so expect fundamentals — chords, picking, getting sound out of the instrument. Song repertoire generally comes from separate material.
