"Turn On Any Radio Or Television And You Will Hear The Unmistakably Haunting Sound Of The Dobro. This Is The Sound Of The New Country And Pop Music!"         

"Don't Be Left Behind While The Acoustic Train leaves The Station! This Amazing Book/CD Course will have you playing the Dobro in Minutes! In Fact, It Is So Easy To Use And Understand, You'll be playing the Dobro today!"

 

Dear Friend,

Acoustic music is hot, hot, HOT right now. Especially Bluegrass and Blues music.

It seems every band is coming out with an "acoustic" CD whether they are known for that style of music or not. Chances are, if you play in a band, you have put an acoustic set together for those quieter gigs.

Nowadays with every Tom, Dick and Harry walking around with an acoustic guitar it is difficult to stand out above the rest. Well, I have a secret for you and it's called a Dobro.

Most guitar players have seen pictures of or have an idea what a Dobro or  resonator guitar is. Chances are that when they talk about one, it is with awe and the conversation usually begins and ends with "when I get one" or "I wish I had one".

The thing is, people know about this type of guitar generically called a Dobro but not many actually know how to play it. Here's the secret:

It's easy!

In fact it is so easy to play that I took my Dobro over to my friend Dave's  house (He plays hard rock guitar) and showed him the stuff from the first couple of chapters and within minutes he was playing blues licks and sounding like he had been playing a couple years! In fact he was having so much fun I practically wrestle it out of his hands which would have most likely ended up in a bloody mess namely me. Lest you think I'm a wuss, for the record Dave has about a 100 pounds of solid muscle weight advantage over me and has years of martial arts and wrestling experience.

Afterwards Dave commented on how easy it was to play and sound good. Check out his note to me:

International best selling book Teach Yourself to Play Dobro.

 

 

Dear Joe,

Thanks for showing me how to play the Dobro. I am amazed at how easy and fun it is to play. Your book Teach Yourself To Play Dobro is the key to starting out on the right foot (or chord). I'm heading out to purchase a Dobro of my own this weekend.  After concentrating on scales and modes for so many years, I'm ready for some real fun!

Thanks!  Dr. Dave,  www.drdavesbest.com

 

 

That's it. I could end now and tell you to buy my book. but I won't.

As you can see by that list this book is great if you are just starting out with no prior musical knowledge as well as experienced musicians alike.

Read what this person had to say about this best selling book:

 

Wow!  What a find!!  I chose "Teach Yourself to Play Dobro" by Joe Stoebenau from a large selection of
teaching manuals offered by a large music website.  You might say I chose this book sight unseen and only had the
manual description offered by the site to guide me. Well I am extremely pleased with the results.  It is
easy to read, very simplistic to understand and has wonderful photos to guide a new dobro enthusiast to
the intermediate level of play.  Being a professional musician with 30 years of experience playing cornet,
guitar, mandolin, and harmonica, I have seen lots of "teach yourself manuals" that have been more
detrimental rather than helpful.  Many times the author writes from the perspective that you should
already have an understanding of the music language of slants, slides, licks, pull-offs and hammer-ons.  For
a beginner this can be overwhelming.  Joe takes the approach that you are just beginning to understand
music and leads you gentley into the world of music comprehension.  With a teacher's guide like this who
can't learn to play dobro?  Believe me, this is a must for all beginning dobro musicians!!!
