  • Pages are all good. The cover is a little rough but that doesn't really matter, it's the content that matters.

  • Arrived as Expected

    Good place to start for beginners in guitar! Update to review.....my cd was missing, just got started reading the book, didn’t think I would need the cd but already on page 3 it says “listen to the cd” & lists several reason why listening to the cd is really important. Hopefully I can master without the cd or maybe find the cd on You Tube.

  • Need more hands- less reading !

    The book is about an inch thick and it's a lot of reading of stuff. So far I m not getting what I thought I would. I should be getting back to playing by now.

  • Old graphics and more of a reference book.

    Too much litterature, not enough practicing materials. Not possible for beginners to learn with this book alone. Glad I only wasted 4$.
