Plenty of familiar song examples, fingerpicking, alternating bass (Travis-picking), chord-melody playing, cool chords around the neck and an explanation of the Minor Keys. There's no need to read music, but there is just enough music theory to help make you a better player, including the demystification of the Circle of Fifths.
