An acoustic instrument is one that does not depend on electronic amplification to be heard. There are many types of acoustic guitars, but the same musical concepts apply to them all. If you’re interested in playing pop, country, folk, or gospel guitar, this is the place to begin. The guitar course includes music reading, ear-training, technique, and music theory, which provides an understanding of chords and improvisation.  Once you have mastered the basics, you can take your playing in any stylistic direction you like.  The guitar course is also valuable for singers who would like to be able to accompany themselves.
