Best yet

After 35 years of self taught guitar and knowing a fair amount about music theory, I found this book to be the clearest, most concise and comprehensive overview of theory I've ever read. This is "must have" for any guitarist who wants to move beyond groping the neck and develop an organized approach to your music.

The best book out there for music theory as applied to guitar.

There are many things to really like about this book. Music theory throughout the book is presented systematically from triads to seventh chords to altered chords and so forth. There are quizzes at the end of chapters to test yourself to make sure you really understand what was just presented in the chapter. There are ear training exercises in most chapters to develope your aural skills along the way. Graphics are professional and visually appealing. The diagrams really make the book easy to follow. Every critical chord group, scale, and mode is explained. The author gives advice on how the guitarist can apply scales over jazz changes and explains key centers and substitutions. Great book for beginning and intermediate level jazz guitarists.

Very Good book!

This is a must have book if you want to dig into musical theory
behind what you play and what you're going to play. Very comprehensive and easy understand.

this is the book I am looking for

I am a first time learner to music and guitar. Although I was attending classes, the terminology was totally confusing. I wanted to find a book which tells me the music fundamentals specific to guitar. This is the book! I read only first few chapters, I liked it and highly recommend it. I will post my experiences after reading it fully.

Good Overview of music theory

For the guitarist who wants to understand more of the theory behind music notation and the guitar. This is a good reference. It is pretty comprehensive, although the explanations are often a bit brief. Best for those with some music notation experience looking to expand their knowledge.
