I recently started learning how to play guitar, I was l wondering what are some books worth my time that will help me learn?
This is a fantastic book that covers everything from guitar greats, to guitar maintainence, customization, proper technique, scales, chords (including a chord dictionary) and much more. http://www.amazon.ca/Guitar-Handbook-Ralph-Denyer/dp/0679742751"]The Guitar Handbook: Amazon.ca: Ralph Denyer: Books Also, this guy's website and lessons are great. http://www.justinguitar.com/en/BC-000-BeginnersCourse.php
"Berklee Press A Modern Method For Guitar Volume1" This Books introduce the basic of guitar playing chords and scales.
x 2 for Justinguitar.com, I learn covers off his wonderful website often. Honestly I don't think you need a book, you can find amazing instructional videos on youtube for free. I would recommend anyone just starting out to seek an instructor for 4 to 6 lessons. It doesn't have to be at a music store or anything, find a friend who plays better then you do and have them teach you how to: tune, play all 7 Major chords and show you how to use Bar chords. That's all you need to know to play around a campfire. If you wish to learn beyond that learn the minor chords and 7 (vii) chords. Hit me up if you ever have any questions, I've been playing guitar for 30 years and play in bands still (even tho I'm an old guy Peace out
It is great that you started learning this godly instrument. I would recomend Phil Capone's books. :sunny: P.S ROCK ON ! unk:
Well while you're on the Internet, I'd suggest googling for teachings/help. My boyfriend tried to become a rock star but just never had the time but he stated to play songs just from solo teachings on the Internet. GuitarTabs I think he uses. But that might just be for tabs but I'm sure there's tutorials.
