This is a good book that covers most of the basic you need to know about guitar

I am mostly an intuitive guitarist who actually does fairly well as a performer. I was hoping this was the book that would help me along, but it was not what I hoped. It’s still pretty technical and fails to link riffs, patterns, and fretboard relationships into music that you can recognize and use. A few bits were OK, but it’s back to doing what I do best- listening and playing along, and teaching myself.

I’m about halfway through this and its fairly thorough w/o being overcomplicated. The only complaint I’d have is that the chapters are sometimes uneven, in that one will take about 5 minutes to understand the material perfectly and another one will take at least a half hour to read through the more complicated info.

You know how when you go into a guitar shop you see racks full of pamphlets with nothing but chord and scale diagrams? Well thats what this “book” is. Customer reviews on Amazon have helped me find a lot of cool books, but this is one time where I got suckered. This pamphlet is 103 pages long, and has very sparse amount of text between diagrams, which you will only understand if you already have a working knowledge of music theory.

This book is very tightly written and skimming is not an option. The lack of extraneous text should not take away from its content. The theory is presented in a straight forward and comprehensive way each section building on the last. So, if you don’t get it jumping ahead is not going to help. I am sure that it really does lend itself as a supplement to any guitar method because the material is universal. It has helped me encapsulate what I have learned in class in one written place.
