Running straight from the disc (no complicated computer knowledge required) the guides give you instant access to a wealth of information using graphics, animation, text and, most importantly, sound, which is something a book can never do.

Music is a major part of our lives, whether on-screen, radio or live. Now everybody can take part, not just listen!  The NoExcuses guides, a unique and innovative range of interactive CD-ROM guides combined with a JamAcademy DVD, provide easy access to musical training for all. 

Five PC/Mac compatible NoExcuses guides cater for Guitar, Bass, Keyboards, Singers and Harmonica.  Designed and produced by professional musicians, each guide is practical, simple to use and highly informative for people of all ages.  From complete novices onward, anyone can unlock their potential with their chosen instrument via the guides – in their own time, at their own pace and in complete privacy.

The unique JamAcademy DVD empowers the musician to gain the experience of playing in a band and have great fun, while learning! 

Each NoExcuses guide covers (and lets the musician actually hear) everything they need to know. This ranges from theory and techniques in every style, practice songs, equipment and care - through to a jargon buster, 'Jam it' section and tips 'n tricks provided by experts.

Inspirational, affordable and comprehensive - the NoExcuses guides deliver better results in all markets.  Schools have a brilliant new learning resource to help aspiring musicians, in and out of lessons - especially those that cannot afford the traditional routes to musical learning. Libraries can add a string to their bow, while retailers - like book and music stores - have a new opportunity to add value and profit on the shop floor.
