For beginning to intermediate guitar players, I would suggest learning some of the fundamentals and basics from Hal Leonard's Guitar Method Complete Edition - Books 1 2 and 3 (bound together in one volume).

If it seems like it would help I'd move on to the Suzuki method or at least to simple songs and etudes. Read More
