Ultimate Guitar Chords, Scales & Arpeggios Handbook: 240 Lessons For All Levels: Book & Streaming Video Course

I want to start this by stating that I have a minor understanding of music. As a bass player I learned how to read music and play one note at a time, but I never felt like I would be able to tackle the guitar or play chords. That's not to say I haven't tried, but nothing I've done so far has felt right. With the help of this e-book I finally have an easy way to focus directly on the chords. The very beginning of the book clearly explains how to use the symbols and notations used for instruction, and then jumps right in to teaching individual notes, which are of the roots of the chords.The handbook instructs on music theory and technique, but not enough to bore you, and gets right into what is interesting about guitars, which is playing them! Going along with this is the instructional videos which correspond to the lessons. The videos are very helpful and go at a pace that is follow-able for beginners like me. Damon is very professional in the videos and is conscious of his audience. The videos are a real highlight of the e-book, as the links embedded in the lessons will instantly take you to the video on YouTube, and then when you are done you can go directly back to where you left off. The only downside here is that you need internet connection to connect to the videos. Overall though this has been a great tool so far, and I hope to continue using it to expand my musical education.

I'm not new to Damon Ferrante's guitar books. They are easy and fun. This one is a comprehensive guide on guitar playing, very well organized. When learning by yourself using a book what you need are clear and easy lessons that don't take anything for granted. I've found them in these books and I feel that I've made a lot of progress already. Try it! You won't be disappointed!

Easy to use and great thanks this has helped me play better than before I read this great book cheers

This book is good for showing the correct chord configuration.

I'm just starting to play guitar not long ago. My friend recommend me this book. So far I like it a lot. This book has what beginners need to start playing. Each lesson is easy and clear enough to understand. I had a hard time remember different fretboard positions of scales and always had to look it up on the internet whenever I need. Now they are all organized in one book, I can clip a few pages to find what I need. It is a useful and detailed book.
