Customer Reviews

This is great book!
I bought Mr. Aranjo's other book Guitar Scale Guru and thought it was great. This book makes learning new chords and playing so easy to understand. Every guitar player should add these two books to their collection.

Very useful book.
I've bought plenty of guitar books over the years. This one if very very good. This book cuts through a lot of the "(..)" and boring stuff that so many books are filled with. Straight forward.

Best book by far so far!
I have played guitar for a few years now but I never had a lesson. Basically, I learned everything by ear and by reading guitar tab on the internet. I have read a few books on guitar chords but this one by far is the best! Despite it's plain design, this is the best guitar chord book I have read so far and it has helped me learn more about the guitar then I thought I ever would. In addition, if you buy this book do yourself a favor and also purchase the Guitar Guru Scale book...you will not regret it!
