This review is from: CMT's 100 Greatest Country Songs: Easy Guitar with Standard Notation and Tab (Paperback)

I use this book a lot. Since I haven't had guitar lessons it's a good book because it shows the chords. I don't necessarily agree that the song selections are the "100 greatest country songs", but there are good ones included, both old and new.

This review is from: CMT's 100 Greatest Country Songs: Easy Guitar with Standard Notation and Tab (Paperback)

As a beginning guitarist this collection is a bit advanced for me but there's enough songs that are a bit easier and others that push me quite a bit. The book as a nice variety of old/new, slow/fast, easy/difficult that it will appeal to most country lovers. I, personally, thought the song choices were excellent. I recommend it!

This review is from: CMT's 100 Greatest Country Songs: Easy Guitar with Standard Notation and Tab (Paperback)

After receiving The Eagles Guitar/TABs book, I was starting to think that I shouldn't have ordered this one at the same time. But I just received the CMT 100 Greatest Songs and its great! professionally printed and easy TABs to follow for beginners like me. I have attempted to play some of the songs and they sound identical to the original songs. Unlike the Eagles purchase this book doesn't only give the note but breaks the tabs down into the strings played in that note.

WELL WORTH THE MONEY!
