CDIncluded

FastTrack is (you guessed it!) a quick way for

beginners to learn to play an instrument.

Skeptical of method books? (Yeah, we think

they’re kind of boring, too.) That’s why we’ve

made FastTrack different from the rest: user-

friendly, with plenty of cool songs, and a lot more

fun! These books teach you what you need to

know to get playing right away, but also the fun

stuff you want to know. Plus, the last section for

most of the FastTrack method books for different

instruments is the same so that players can form

a band and jam together! How cool is that?!
