I bought this for my Dad for Christmas. He’s been plunking on a guitar for years.. and played well many years ago. He’s been trying to get back into it, and was looking for some written instruction.
He’s never made any comment on it, so don’t really know how to review this book.

(dramatic music starts)As a young adult, going through many changes in my emotions, and my body, I turned to the guitar, to help express myself. However, a way to start seemed impossible. But then…. I SAW THE LIGHT! Yes… Guitar for Dummies. It led the way for me to learn how to play guitar, and now 2 weeks later, I am in a band, making millions of dollars! And you can too! If you call one of our operators in the next 10 minutes! But wait! We’ll throw in a guitar pick if you call in the next 5 minutes! What i’m trying to say is…. this book saved my life. Infact it brings tears to my eyes describing the beauty of this work of art called GUITAR FOR DUMMIES! (dramatic music ends)

I should have known better than ordering another worthless guitar instruction book. I have been trying to learn how to play the guitar for over 50 years now and I have yet to find an instruction book that tells you how really to play more than simple chords and strumming. I have stacks of such books that have not helped me at all. It seems to me that there in a conspiracy to try to keep people from learning what all the great guitar players know. Even the private instructors keep you taking lessons for years without really teaching you anything of value. When I learned to play wind instruments the lessons were concise and they followed a definate pattern to help you achieve a high level of ability. All the guitar books I’ve seen so far start somewhere in the middle and go nowhere. It is my firm belief that a person is born to be a real, all around, good guitar player and if he isn’t there is very little anyone can do to teach you.
