Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Alot of information packed in...
This reference book does not have many pages, but it does have a huge amount of information. This information is presented in a logical sequence, and I found it easy to read. Be aware that, just as with any guitar theory book, actually LEARNING the contents and being able to use what you learn in your playing will take you months if not years.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Well-Structured Book, Wealth of Material
I think the irony with many standard guitar methods, at least the better ones, is that they usually expect you to have a basic knowledge of music theory to allow the exercises to really sink in from the very beginning.

There are quizzes to help you learn the information. The book also includes a CD with audio examples. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent Resource
Mr. Kolb's style of writing is highly conducive to learning music theory for the guitar. Whereas most music theory books I've looked at have been rather dry and focus more on piano, this book focuses solely on guitar and has given me several "a-ha!" moments. Highly recommended!
