4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource, May 14, 2004
By 
Mad Dog "maddog6969" (TimbuckThree, Tennessee) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jimi Hendrix, Guitar Signature Licks: A Step-by-Step Breakdown of His Guitar Styles and Techniques (Book & CD) (Paperback)
This Signature Licks book plus CD is an excellent starting place to learn some of the tricks and stylings Jimi used when playing his tunes. For a much higher price, you can get the Hal Leonard DVD that shows Andy Aledort playing all the songs on the album Are You Experienced - 60 bucks retail! If you don't want to plunk down so many bucks, this is probably the place to start. I hope you have large hands - some of Jimi's chords are virtually impossible for those of us with normal hands to play.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST JIMI HENDRIX BOOK OUT THERE!, December 31, 2003
By 
Luke H. (Hermitage, Pa United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jimi Hendrix, Guitar Signature Licks: A Step-by-Step Breakdown of His Guitar Styles and Techniques (Book & CD) (Paperback)
I bought this book not too long ago I was floored by how correct all the notes were their are not one note in this book that is wrong. Plus the CD gives you what the book gives you everything you could imagine. Their is a full band on the CD that are out of this world I wish they really toured lol. I learned all the songs from this book and am getting together a Jimi Hendrix Tribute Band. This book covers all the songs you will love my favorites are Purple Haze, Manic Depression, Little Wing, Bold As Love, Foxy Lady, Voodoo Chile(slight reutrn), and Castles Made Of Sound. On the CD there is also the proper tuning for a song an example of this would be on Purple Haze it is in standered tuning on Bold As Love it is half step tunned. For any guitarist starting or looking to buy a correct Jimi Hendrix book buy this without second thought and please Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you wanna learn hendrix's secrets, here's THE book., July 5, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jimi Hendrix, Guitar Signature Licks: A Step-by-Step Breakdown of His Guitar Styles and Techniques (Book & CD) (Paperback)
This is probably the single best source out there to truly learn Hendrix's techniques and secrets on his most famous recordings. I've been playing quite a long time, and I have already learned a great deal from this well laid out text/CD. I copied all of the tracks into iTunes, so I can easily access different peices of the example tracks.

This book will improve your playing techniques and tone no matter where you are in your playing journey. The author has probably the best guitar tone in the industry, and he lists all of his equipment. The description and teachings of each section are very well done. His choice of words to describe different techniques and sounds is excellent.

There are a lot of decent guitar books out there, but this author and his books stand out. If want to learn Hendrix, you absolutely need to buy this book.
