Guitar Head Books and Web page.
Format: Paperback
Thank you. I'm going to be honest. "I haven't reached the web page shows on those books.... I will" I'm reading first. These books are teaching me what i need to know a very long time ago. "Good job and Thanks again"

No Fluff
Format: Kindle
Just what I was looking for!!!! This book was short and straight to the point. It answered all my questions about tab reading quickly and was super easy to understand allowing me to spend more time playing and less time deciphering music theory.

TABS - Never even knew!
Format: Paperback
I recently bought several Guitar Head books and just finished reading "Guitar Tabs" for the 2nd time. I'm 59 years old and have plucked around on the guitar most of my life and never knew TABS. This will definitely help simplify being able to write down the fret and string the notes are played on and help me to memorize songs I've been playing. The "Bonus" material, with licks and exercises is definitely a BONUS! Thanks GH for simplifying a way to relate the notes on a musical scale to the notes on the fretboard! An awesome read! Fixing to read one of the next books I purchased: Guitar Fretboard - Memorize the Fretboard in less than 24 hours. If it's anything like TABS, these are a must read for any guitar player at any level. Thanks Guitar Head! ... show more

sorry but not worth the money
Format: Paperback
I bought for grandson "16" and he was more confused then learning anything. he did get a few clues but lost interest very fast. I looked at it and it was more about getting you to go to there website. sorry but to me I would not suggest this.

Purchase this book along with my guitar and it is great. The exercises are very helpful, and the pictures help understand what is being said. Recommend this book for a guitar beginner. The key to success is practice.
