Riassunto

"The Definitive Guitar Handbook" is a one-stop resource for anyone who wants to get to grips with playing the guitar. It is packed with practical music advice on how to tackle the basics, such as simple chords and finger-picking, right through to more complex power chords, slurs, bends and slides. There are practical guides to playing all kinds of licks, riffs and rhythms, the range of effects and how to use them, and amplification. For the budding performer, top tips on stagecraft and performing live are included, as well as step-by-step guitar maintenance. There is also a useful section on recording. The guitar gods and classic guitars featured will provide inspiration, and the fantastic reference source includes an invaluable chord dictionary to widen any guitarist's repertoire.

Recensione:

Booktopia Comments: I cannot recommend this book enough. Absolutely packed with all sorts of information, photos of legends and nuts and bolts techniques that you need to know to become an awesome guitarist. It would be the perfect gift for any teenager who has aspirations to play the guitar. Then again for any adult it is also absolutely appropriate because it really does tell you everything you need to know. It is called a "Handbook" for that very reason. It has every single topic you can imagine. For example here are some randomly selected: Fret Care, Chord Riffs, Setting The Bridge for Intonation, Minor Triads, 25 Great Guitarists, Preparing for a Gig, Acoustic Guitar Mixing, Harmonics, etc, etc. It just goes on and on. A very thick paperback book with flaps on the inside and back covers. Brilliant photography throughout. Highly recommended as a gift... even if it is for yourself! Enjoy! --Tony Nash
