Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This book covers almost every guitar technique used by modern guitar virtuosos and explains them in simple terms anyone can understand. Topics include arpeggios, finger tapping, artificial and muted harmonics, exotic scales and chords, modes, "outside" playing, and more, along with never before published methods such as the "wah-wham" technique, unorthodox tremolo bar manipulations, and out-of-the-box thinking exercises. Extensive musical examples are provided in tablature form, no traditional music reading skills necessary. Topics tangential to guitar playing yet still of interest to guitarists are also included, such as how to find band members, taking care of your hands, how to get gigs, and more. The author draws upon his 20 years of guitar playing experience to provide genuine "insider" information, much of which has never appeared elsewhere. Guitarists of all levels will find a plethora of knowledge within this book to dramatically improve their proficiency on the instrument.

4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and Informative, February 7, 2008
I purchased this book for my son who knows how to play but hasn't had any formal training or lessons. He really enjoyed the book - it was full of tips but also stories about being part of the musicians 'scene'. I don't know if an advanced player would necessarily learn anything from the book - but it would still be an enjoyable read. As a 'how-to' book I would recommend it for beginners, but a person at any level could still enjoy the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Intermediate guitar playing., February 7, 2008
This book is good for intermediate guitar players. I do wish it had a little more tableture, but the stories are funny and quirky. I also like the story of behind the title.

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading title., January 31, 2008
By Anthony Smith (Salt Lake City, Utah) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book has pages and pages of stories, and not many exercises. The information is presented in a strange fashion and looks as if its been copied directly from an internet tab site.
