5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent assortment of songs for all guitarists.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Guitar Player Songbook - Omnibus Edition (Paperback)
It is hard to find a book that has a good assortment of songs to play through. Most songbooks tend to be compilations of one style or genre of music. Unless you feel like playing through a book of Pop Hits of the 90's or Broadway Love songs, this book will keep you happy for years to come. The Complete Guitar Player Songbook includes songs of the Beatles, James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Simon & Garfunkel as well as folk standards and a number of classical selections. The book includes chord diagrams, suggested strum and picking patterns and is in standard notation as well as tablature.

A Very Mixed Bag,
By Searle "Searle" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Guitar Player Songbook - Omnibus Edition (Paperback)
The good thing about this book--and about this songbook series in general-- is that it includes many popular songs that are good for a guitar player to learn, both to learn basic chord technique and build repertoire. The bad thing is that they are rife with errors, including unconventional and sometimes frankly incorrect music notation, some incorrect chord changes, and even some wrongly transcribed melodies (and it includes far too many of Shipton's own compostions, which are of minimal value). If you can find another songbook or songbooks that include most of the songs you want to learn, it is probably a more faithful and useful reproduction than this book. However, it does give good practice in basic chord changes, and has a good amount of good (and bad) songs, mostly folk and pop from the 60s and 70s, with some traditional tunes.

A++ Songbook!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Guitar Player Songbook - Omnibus Edition (Paperback)
This book has some great songs that are easy to play. I have been playing the guitar for less than a year and can play alot of the songs in this book. My only complaint is the page numbering. It's hard to find the songs in the book. I marked my favorites with sticky notes so I could find them again. Happy picking!
