4.0 out of 5 stars This'll keep you busy for a while..., October 31, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Alternate Tunings Picture Chords (Paperback)
Mark Hanson has put togeather a great although not exhaustive referance. It seems to me that the chords included do two things. 1 They get you started and ready to persue more indepth study of your favorite common and not so common alternate tunings. 2. You are given a most useful chord pallet to start your journey of exploration.

If you are at a point of seriously considering the purchase of this book you are obviously at a point where you've more than a basic idea of how to use your instrument. This book is a great tool to help take your music to a different place and can be counted on to enrich both you and your music.

For blusies, yes there's dadf#ad, dadgad for the irish/celtic, dgdgbd for you country shredders. (Of note the dgdgbd section also helped me on banjo.) slide tunings, and a couple that are dooable but would sound better if you change strings first. EEBBf#e?

This book is best consumed with a cheap guitar and a ten pack of strings.

The book is most useful for practicing artists, mid to advanced level guitarests and people who like to blow away coffey shop crowds at open mic nights.

This review is from: Alternate Tunings Picture Chords (Paperback)
This does exactly what it says on the cover. It gives you pictures of loads of different chords from different tunings. IT is easy to use, and the pictures are large and clear. What more could you want !

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book Assembled for You Understand, January 4, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Alternate Tunings Picture Chords (Paperback)
As the previous reviewer stated this book does exactly what it states, gives you tons of pictures of various chords. If you are comfortable with standard tuning, and want to experiment with something different than this is a good book to try. It shows you chords with pictures and charts organized by tunings. There are enough tunings in this book to keep anyone occupied for a long time. Plus the price is excellent.
