Title: Excellent coverage of almost every issue related to guitars
Review: This is a really excellent book, one that I highly recommend. It contains a little history of stringed instruments, mostly oriented towards guitar, and electric more than acoustic. Inside is complete coverage of all standard notes, chord theory, chord dictionary, and altered tunings and a few 'weird' ways of playing. Different genres are covered, including blues, flamenco, classical and (of course) rock. Very interesting profiles of a number of artists, including their styles of play and guitar types (including brand names). At the end is a section on recording, producing, publishing, marketing and selling including info that is up to date with what's new on the internet. There are a few typos, mostly in the latter chapters, but a very worthwhile book and quite complete for all my purposes.
Is the review positive or negative?
