IF YOU DON`T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MUSIC THEORY...,
By
This review is from: Progressive Blues Lead Guitar Method (Paperback)
...but you want to play Blues, this is the right book for you. I wanted to play blues, but I never studied any music theory, so I thought it would be impossible. But this book is great: it just teaches you the most important concepts of music theory, introduces you to the most famous blues rhytms, teaches you the blues scale... To those who start like me without knowing anything about theory I suggest to first start with the section about Rhytm and then to go on to the Scales ( in the book the two sections are in the opposite order )."From beginners to advanced guitarist..." also is true: there are really simple licks up to some solos I can't yet manage to play sound even after a year. I hope you'll enjoy this book!

Good Tool for Learning Blues Scales and Technique,
By Chuck R. (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Progressive Blues Lead Guitar Method (Paperback)
I bought this book to learn the technique used in rock. Peter Gelling takes you through the 5 patterns, shows the relationship of each pattern to a chord rather than pattern 1 through 5, and teaches you a song in each pattern. He also presents some mixing of the patterns. The techniques hammers, pull-offs, slides, bends, etc. are all covered. He likes to incorporate blues licks in his songs from the old blues masters. I ran into a few of these licks while learning some of my favorite guitar solos.

Great for beginner or intermediate,
By
This review is from: Progressive Blues Lead Guitar Method (Paperback)
I'm a player that hacked around for 10 years before really making an effort to improve. This book and CD really helped. No lesson system is pure magic, much of what is taught in terms of technique obviously takes a lot of practice to master, so be prepared to put in the work. My only knock on this product is that the CD is not subdivided enough. I bought the Rhythm Blues book in this series and each example was a track on the CD. For the Lead CD, each track is a whole lesson that may have up to 5 examples on it. It's not the end of the world, but I found it to be a pain that I couldn't loop a single example very easily.
