5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for guitar beginners,
By
This review is from: The Hal Leonard Guitar Superbook (Paperback)
I think that if you have a basic understanding of music theory (eg. reading music) then this book is great for you. It goes through the basics of guitar playing step by step and the cds are useful as well. I bought a couple of other beginner guitar books, but this book took me farther in 5 days than others did in 2 weeks. Also, the fact that the book contains 4 other books with real songs to play and not just guitar method is a great deal.

Yes, Goofy,
This review is from: The Hal Leonard Guitar Superbook (Paperback)
This is a very comprehensive book--not perfect, but very useful. I am a music teacher and plan to use this to teach a guitar class. I really just wanted to clear something up with some of the comments about the music being an octave too high. If you compare guitar music to the pitches on the piano, you will find that all guitar music in standard notation is written an octave higher than it actually sounds when compared to the piano. It is done that way so the notes can fit on the staff without a lot of ledger lines and is thus easier to read. The notes on the guitar actually lie on both the bass and treble clefs so writing the one octave higher allows the notes to fit more onto one staff without having to use two such as piano music requires. Someone trained to read music on a guitar would never notice until they tried to play their music on the piano and discovered the discrepency. So it is not a mistake that was overlooked by the publisher as one reviewer suggested--that is just how it is done for very practical reasons. This is a perfectly good method book.

This is a great book for people who have a basic understanding of music theory. Beginning Guitar Superbook has a nice layout, and a step by step method that is easy to follow. The CD's are helpful, and give you a good reference for the lessons. CleverJoe.com three thumbs up!
