This won't give you any riffs. That's not the point of the book. It explains music theory as it applies to the guitar and gives you a framework in which to create those riffs. It works very well as a resource. This is not a "play all the stuff in here and you'll get better at guitar book". It delves into some fairly complex territory, ...             Chord Tone Soloing: A Guitarist's Guide to Melodic Improvising in Any Style17 reviews Barrett Tagliarino Musicians Institute Press, 2006 Great Book This book shows you how to play the right notes over any chord changes and in any style.

I have no time in my life for taking guitar lessons so I had been using the internet as a resource for learning to play as well as another book that I have. I had some basic skills, two scales, and a few chords in my arsenal but had been struggling mightily forming the C major chord. I was getting frustrated and thinking maybe my hands ...             The Beatles Complete Chord Songbook70 reviews The Beatles Hal Leonard Corporation, 2000 Thanks Thanks so much for having this available for purchase.

Not one of them has approached the topic like this book does. I would not recommend this book for beginners who don't have a teacher or mentor. Sort of like trying to visualize driving a car by looking at the mechanical pieces. You need a foundation for it to really start turning the gears (IMHO). But for people ...             The Guitar Player Repair Guide - 3rd11 reviews Dan Erlewine Backbeat Books, 2007 The Guitar Player Repair Guide This has to be the best book of it's kind. Guitar set-up procedures are for individual Guitars, and are taken from the various manufacturers. The author goes into great detail in his explanation of the various procedures of everything from repairs to modifications. I refer to the book almost on a daily basis. He also gives his opinion on different bridges, and other Guitar parts. It's a "Must ...             Blues You Can Use (Blues You Can Use)38 reviews John N Ganapes Hal Leonard Corporation, 1995 Learn to improvise entire neck, any key I am 61 years old and finally I can play lead (any key) over entire neck after going thru this book and taking time on each lesson to fully understand it. I have taken private Jazz lessons for a year before but something was missing. This book made it clear,I now see lead patterns when i hit a chord and can jump anyplace on neck and still be playing lead in the right key.             The Guitar Amp Handbook: Understanding Tube Amplifiers and Getting Great Sounds20 reviews Dave Hunter Backbeat Books, 2005 A "Noobie" Must Have Although I have been building vintage clones for several years, this book clearly defined terms that I have seen in amp building forums that before made little sense to me. I shared this book with my 23 year old son, who is just getting into amp building. It was a great motivating factor in our first build together. I wish I would have had it years ago.             Solo Guitar Playing/Book 1 with CD (Classical Guitar)36 reviews Frederick M. Noad Amsco Publications, 1994 I've owned a copy of this book for 30 years! I stumbled onto this book as a teenager trying to teach myself to play the guitar. I found it both easy to understand and rewarding. Eventually I went on to minor in jazz guitar in college and spent several years as a union musician. A few years ago I returned to this book (I finally replaced my old copy with a new version) when I wanted to venture into classical guitar. Almost thirty years ...             Kid's Guitar Course, Book 1 (Book and Enhanced CD) (Kid's Courses!) (Kid's Courses!)20 reviews R. Manus, L.C. Harnsberger Alfred Publishing Company, 2003 One of the Best Methods for the Early Beginner This is one of THE BEST methods out there for the young guitar student learning to play pick style guitar. The book and enhanced C.D. are excellent instructional tools.

The text starts with three-string chords and progresses through ...             How to Write Songs on Guitar: A Guitar-Playing and Songwriting Course35 reviews Rikky Rooksby Miller Freeman Books, 2000 Excellent Book I checked this book out of the library so many times that I finally decided to buy it. The chord progressions and examples are what make this book great, and they apply to all types of musical instruments. I use this book to compose on the computer, then sequence the songs into synthesizers. As for the negative reviews, my guess is that they don't understand what a chord progression is. ...             Fretboard Logic SE: The Reasoning Behind the Guitar's Unique Tuning + Chords Scales and Arpeggios Complete ...96 reviews Bill Edwards Bill Edwards Publishing, 1997 Breaking through the fretboard barrier The bottom line is: this book will do more for your playing confidence than anything else you can invest in (that is, if you don't already have expert knowledge of the fretboard). I have mainly played rhythm until now, but even my band members are amazed at my lead progress and the varieties I add the rhythm. Get it, learn it, and your confidence on the guitar will grow.             A Modern Method for Guitar - Volumes 1, 2, 3 Complete29 reviews William Leavitt Berklee Press Publications, 1999 The most comprehensive guitar method ever!

I started out with another book, All About Bass. Big mistake. Then I found this book, Ed Friedland's bass method on Amazon and am very happy with it. I especially like that it progresses slowly, with each string, and includes short CD songs right from the beginning lesson. This nailed it as far as getting me to want to practice on a regular basis. The reward of sounding good early sure helps.
