From: Amazon Posted: Jun 24, 2008 Type: User Review Awesome!

Never played a guitar in my life, but after 3 days I was reading music and by the end of the first week, playing 3 strings. It's a great book for the beginner, even if you're only 50!

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 18, 2008 Type: User Review Great book, great price

This is a great bargain. I like the ring binding of this, it opens flat and can be folded backwards. The cds are great to hear what it is supposed to sound like.

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 07, 2008 Type: User Review Good book. Lots of material.

I get discouraged purchasing a book and find out later it has one good section and the other is fluff. This book is like the "Best of" albums. I has great material through and through.

Although it may not be the only book you will...

Warning - Those who wish to learn the fingerpicking style of guitar should not purchase this book. On page 6 it shows how to hold a pick in your right hand, and that's it. If you don't want to use a pick, get a different book.

I'm...

From: Amazon Posted: May 24, 2008 Type: User Review Very good for beginner but a little slow on the up swing

This is a great product for learning the guitar from the beginning. Very thorough and the CD's really help. I believe a DVD would have made it more complete though. Maybe something to show you a few quick chords or easy song to keep you excited...
