About this ebook
As a lot of people we studied music at schools. Did someone catch enough to play? We can’t say yes on this question. Afterwards we learn to play using different books and manuals. These papers promised many good things but that was sort of suffering to learn to play. By trial and error we have figured out quite enough information which can eliminate this suffering. So we decided to write a book if we could read one we would not get through difficulties for many years long.
In this book we tried to explain the origin and fundamental properties of music. We named this as anatomy of music because we tried to dive in the depth of it.
We just used notes to explain how to play without notes and tablatures.
You Can Play Guitar in Few Weeks, delivers just needed information to play any song you just have heard and even more. You will be able to play without notes and tablatures. You will be able to write them yourself. By the way you'll get system knowledge. This book contains no junk and confusions.

Introduction
As a lot of people we studied music at schools. Did someone catch enough to play? We can’t say yes on this question. Afterwards we learn to play using different books and manuals. These papers promised many good things but that was sort of suffering to learn to play. By trial and error we have figured out quite enough information which can eliminate this suffering. So we decided to write a book if we could read one we would not get through difficulties for many years long.
In this book we tried to explain the origin and fundamental properties of music. We named this as anatomy of music because we tried to dive in the depth of it.
We just used notes to explain how to play without notes and tablatures. Nevertheless we delivered music theory quite completely trying to eliminate confusive moments.

But the number 12 was magic at that time. So he did as he did and now we have European music. In some regions of China it is divided in 13th and they have Chinese music.
Nowadays this is known (but not for
