5.0 out of 5 stars excellent album - excellent book...
Real well laid out easy to read format - same as the other great Cherry Lane Metallica tab books. Not alot I can say really - is an excellent book - although if you were looking for some slightly 'easier' Metallica to start with you might want to look at the self titled/'Black' album. If you've pretty much got grips with most of the likes of Master Of Puppets and all...

1.0 out of 5 stars Do they transcribe the Clipping?
This transcription of the retail version of Death Magnetic is missing something obvious: there is no extra tablature to cover the noises made by the clipping on the album!

You would think they would at least an an extra line for the digital scratching. Alot of times in a tab book, Dream Theater's for example, they transcribe keyboard parts to guitar, etc, in...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, November 9, 2008
This review is from: Metallica - Death Magnetic (Tab) (Paperback)
Metallica truly went back to the basics with this album. As usual, Cherry Lane did an excellent job transcribing the album. This book is quite accurate, and nicely laid out. I only have two minor issues with this book.

The first - is lack of chord diagrams on the first page of each song like they did in the other tab books. Even though I am proficient in reading music, I found this feature nice.

The second - are some disconnects between the tablature and actual music notation. In some locations the music staff is indicating a low G, but the tablature is correctly notating an open low E. I am shocked this was not caught at the editing phase.

In any case, if you want to learn how to play the songs on Death Magnetic, this is a great start.

5.0 out of 5 stars Death Magnetic Rules!, January 12, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Metallica - Death Magnetic (Tab) (Paperback)
I have every single tab book of Metallica's albums and this is probably the most fun to play, all riffs are so much fun and they are like warming up exercises. I think everyone should have this book in their library especially newbies!! Rock on!

The music book for Metallica's Death Magnetic is very accurate and why I bought it in the first place. it is better than trying to learn the songs on the internet which aren't as accurate.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do they transcribe the Clipping?, November 30, 2008

This review is from: Metallica - Death Magnetic (Tab) (Paperback)
This transcription of the retail version of Death Magnetic is missing something obvious: there is no extra tablature to cover the noises made by the clipping on the album!

You would think they would at least an an extra line for the digital scratching. Alot of times in a tab book, Dream Theater's for example, they transcribe keyboard parts to guitar, etc, in case a guitarist wanting to do a cover of the piece doesn't have a keyboard player. Since there is no "digital distortion" player, we need an extra line for us to be able to reproduce the "crackles" live!
