Rhythm Guitar 365: Daily Exercises for Developing, Improving and Maintaining Rhythm Guitar Technique Bk/online audio Details
Review "Nelson exhibits a broad grasp of rhythm techniques, offering credible examples in styles ranging from folk, country, and blues to R&B/funk, jazz, and metal. But the beauty of the book is that even if you played all 365 exercises on a clean-toned Strat, your chops are certain to improve as you work through funky syncopated scratch rhythms, walking bass lines, R&B-style chord slides, high-octane metal pedals, country chord bends, and so on." --GuitarInstructor.com Read more
Reviews
I purchased this book a few years ago and return to it from time to time. I bought many books for guitar on Amazon, a few from this author, some from others, but this one is the most enjoyable for me.It presents many rhythm styles over many chord progressions, some of them are so beautiful, they can stand by their own as short beautiful melodies.Of course the book is very educative, with many chord progressions over several scales, with many music styles and various chord shapes for the same chords.This is of course not the only book one should learn in order to play a guitar. You need to learn pentatonic scales, and maybe the CAGED system. But unlike books that focus on a very specific subjects, this one opens the door to so many music styles and chord progressions from which you can choose and then expand, mix and improvise over.And also important, the format of the book is beautiful as well. The week's chords are presented at the beginning of each week, the printing quality and editing is beautiful and the explanations before every exercise are informative and helping.Very recommended.
