4.0 out of 5 stars Great beginner book, July 10, 2000

"telerookie" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Progressive Guitar Method - Book 1 (Paperback)

I have been teaching myself guitar from various sources for about 9 months and this was the first book that actually got me to read music and not tab(there aren't any tabs to follow). There is also a good linear progression and enough theory used so as not to overwhelm the reader. Most of the songs in the book are familiar enough so that you know what they are supposed to sound like without the enclosed CD. The CD is still very helpful for all the exercises. I have since bought 3 more books in this series but have yet to finish them all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great begginers book!, October 16, 2005

K. Quandt (Central, AL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Progressive Guitar Method - Book 1 (Paperback)

I know nothing about playing guitar, and with this book and DVD that came with it, I'm catching on. You don't learn any chords with this book, so I suggest getting progressive guitar chords to go with it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good introductory instructional manual with CD, September 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Progressive Guitar Method - Book 1 (Paperback)

I recently completed this manual and I have purchased the second in the series. I liked the idea of a short, lightweight and inexpensive manual that approaches guitar instruction systematically. I am learning the guitar using a few instructional manuals. This manual was the least "overwhelming".
