Great Book..... you must stop and think before playing
... the book causes you time and time again to step outside yourself and get out of your own way...... there is a bit of dry humor accompanying every few pages and / or new sections. This is a replacement copy (my second one) apparently when I lend it out it never comes back ! That is a testament to its content....
A thoughtful entertaining approach to improving guitar skills. Not your run of the mill information and exercises. Mick shares insights rarely seen elsewhere giving you a different and helpful perspective on the fingerboard and the theory involved.
