About this product

Product Information

Have you always wanted to play guitar? Who wouldn't? Think of Jimi Hendrix wailing away on his Stratocaster...Chuck Berry duck-walking across the stage to Johnny B. Goode ...B.B. King making his Lucille cry the blues. No doubt about it-guitars are cool. Guitar For Dummies 2nd Edition tells you everything a beginning or intermediate guitarist needs to know: from buying a guitar to tuning it, playing it, and caring for it, this book has it all-and you don't even need to know how to read music. Full of photo-illustrated exercises and songs you can play to practice the techniques discussed in each section, this step-by-step guide will take you through the basics and beyond before you can say Eric Clapton. You'll learn how to: * Match yourself with the guitar and equipment that fits your needs and budget * Select the right accessories: amps, picks, pedals, capos, cases, and other goodies * Pick and strum to produce a clean, clear, buzz-free tone * Know whether you're really in tune * Play melodies without reading music * Perform basic guitar maintenance and repairs * Build strength and dexterity while playing * Play in different styles, including rock, blues, folk, jazz, and classical * Make your guitar talk with bends and slides! Fully revised and updated, with an all new interactive CD that allows readers to listen, learn, tune, and play along, Guitar For Dummies 2nd Edition is the perfect introductory guide for any novice acoustic or electric guitar player. Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.

    Bit too much info

    It giver SO much in great detail, that I found it daunting. As a beginner I needed just the VERY basics. Wohld suit a dedicated beginner with much more time on hands than me. It covers all the basics in great depth. Plenty of exercises. Nice picture instructions. Good quality book.

  • A good comprehensive book on guitar

    It’s not an easy book for beginners despite its title and despite starting off fairly easily - the problem is the acceleration is very quick but it is one of those books that has everything in you will ever need and is a great reference book for dipping into and learning something.

  • Really good clear explanations buy it.

    This is my second copy of this my first copy fell to bits after ten years of being on taken on holiday and general use. I still refer back to it because it I teach other folks and its really good, funny and enjoyable.

  • Great book

    Some of the theory around music has left me floundering at times. This book helped greatly to de-mystify some aspects and left me thinking “dur! How did I not see that!?”
