Re: learning to play guitar and other stringed instruments as a blind person

[Joshua Hendrickson]

I’m not sure where it is in the music collection , but i’m sure the Don h course is still on bard. I’d email nlsdownl...@loc.gov or call my talking book library for help. I don’t care much for Bill Brown’s stuff. Good luck. Sent from My totally awesome iPhone!!

I’m searching on audio files in BARD and not finding any. Finding many Bill Brown items, but not this one.   From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Joshua Hendrickson Sent: Monday, June 3, 2024 4:07 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: learning to play guitar and other stringed instruments as a blind person   I began learning guitar from a course from NLS called Don Hoffer’s Guitar method for the blind. Also a sighted person should have no trouble teaching someone who is blind the guitar. I took guitar lessons from someone who was sighted and had no problems. I also learned a lot by ear.
