Beginners might like this site....

It has yellow buttons that you press to hear chords in a key, and the sound starts instantly. So you can actually play a chordal tune by timing your clicks right:

Plenty of other stuff aimed at getting the beginner going. The guy plugs his books on the site, but nothing wrong with that......it's not in-yer-face all the time.

 

There's a free e-book available, and for beginners it should prove useful. Teachers should check it out, too - they might like it for students. It's a well-presented introduction to guitar and basic theory.

 

Edit:

 

I've just finished flipping through it - it's a big e-book and it's excellent!

Here's another e-book about the minor pentatonic and how to play it, with audio!

 

I was a bit wary after the download because it was in the form of an e-book application. I scanned it, and it came up clean.....I had to register with an email address. Well, it's just business I suppose.

 

Here's the link:

Again, I think it's a good 'un.
