Kona Guitar Company is looking to make learning to play guitar easier and hassle-free. Located in Fort Worth, TX, the company has announced they have teamed with Wiley Publishing to launch an exciting new addition to the For Dummies® line of consumer products. Together, they will be producing a “Guitar Starter Pack For Dummies” which will include a deluxe 39” Kona acoustic guitar, gig bag, digital tuner, 3 picks and a custom version of Wiley Publishing’s top-selling book, “Guitar For Dummies” with instructional CD. Kona will have exclusive distribution rights to USA, Mexico, Canada and all military bases.

After the great success of the original “Guitar For Dummies” book, it makes sense to produce a complete guitar starter pack for beginners, which includes a customized version of the popular guide. The included book is customized specifically for this pack and is titled “Guitar Basics For Dummies.” Wiley and Kona are making learning to play guitar possible by providing everything the beginner needs in one complete package. Players will learn on a high-quality, professional guitar with instruction from a best-selling book. They will also have a digital tuner for accurate playing, 3 guitar picks and a gig bag. The guitar itself features precision enclosed tuners, spruce top for rich sound, linden back and sides, steel strings, attached pick guard and a 10 year limited warranty. The “Guitar Basics For Dummies” book will guide the beginning player with step-by-step instructions and features an interactive audio CD.

In fact, every For Dummies® book, CD, video or other product is a concise, lighthearted and conversational tool that can help you start doing something now – without any formal mumbo jumbo getting in the way.
