5 Star Method
Instructional Materials
You can boost your rhythm and improvisation skills with Five Star Music's play-along method for guitar and bass. These books sum up years of developing, organizing, and fine tuning thousands of lessons into booklet form clearly charted out in tablature and standard music notation. The play-along CD's are the result of 25 years of teaching and recording experience.
All of our 5 Star Method products have been refined by feedback from hundreds of students before being marketed.
How Does The Five Star Music
Play-Along Method Work?
The method provides recorded accompaniment to the written lessons. All songs are recorded exactly as they appear in the books. The program is designed to develop timing, rhythm, feel, and consistency by emulation. The method also promotes improvising by providing a full rhythm section (guitar, bass, and drums) to solo over. The play-along method is like having a band in your own home.
Support & Use For All Levels
Both our books and CD's support beginner to intermediate levels for rhythm development, and can be used at all levels of musicianship for lead development.
