Good Overview of music theory
For the guitarist who wants to understand more of the theory behind music notation and the guitar. This is a good reference. It is pretty comprehensive, although the explanations are often a bit brief. Best for those with some music notation...

I am a first time learner to music and guitar. Although I was attending classes, the terminology was totally confusing. I wanted to find a book which tells me the music fundamentals specific to guitar. This is the book! I read only first few...

The best book out there for music theory as applied to guitar.
