 Best All-Around Guitar Book August 25, 2008
I found this to be the best overall guitar book on the market. It gives extensive background information, as well as having extensive scales, chord charts, fret layout, etc.
This is my third purchase of this book. I always seem to either give it away or lend it to a fellow guitarist and end up never getting it back.
Highly recommended for the serious guitar beginner.
Great for a beginner June 12, 2008
As a beginner at the guitar, I have found this to be a useful guide. It covers construction and care of acoustic and electric guitars, as well as information on how to read music, music theory, and playing the guitar.
 Guitar Handbook January 21, 2008
My son was happy to get it for Christmas and feels he will use it a lot.
Extremely thorough...from playing to care, performance, and recording! January 18, 2008
Getting a book like this, I'm used to getting a primer in guitar theory. Not only do we get that (separated into three levels: Rhythm, Melodic, and Harmonic) in lessons that don't discriminate by genre, but also a full guitar maintenance guide, and helpful information concerning recording and performing live. Most of the book is very rock-centric, and I would have liked a little more attention focused on classical style just for variation. But I'm a rock fan anyway, so it worked perfectly.
The main reason I bought it is because the advanced guitar classes at Loyola New Orleans (my alma mater) used it as a textbook. I can see why!
Greatest Guitar Book Ever September 5, 2007
Thank you Amazon for making this dream a reality,I have been searching for about two years for this book when a Friend told me to contact Amazon and buy this book from you. I must say i was very nervous as this was my first internet purchase but Amazon was so profesional in delivering my book that i can't wait to order again. Thank you again
