Hal Leonard Guitar Method, - Complete Edition:

All aspect of guitar playing are explained in easy to understand instructions. This is a great book to learn from scratch or to further your playing technique and sometimes just to brush up on things you may have already learned but not practiced for a while! Highly recommended.

Great guitar learning book

I really like this book. Very straightforward approach to the guitar. I would recommend springing for the spiral-bound copy.

Must have book for beginners to learn how to read sheet music. Beware, though, that this version does not have the accompanying audio files which makes things less useful since you can’t see how something is played, particularly for the more obscure tunes. Overall, would buy again if I lost it, it I’d get the one that has the audio files.

Glad to finally not have to go back and forth between books. Nice to have them all at my fingertips instead of hunting for them. Saves space on my shelves as well.

Came quickly

It’s quite underwhelming as a reader to be honest. But from teacher’s point of view, it’s pretty well written after all.It’s easy to keep track of students reading skills.

I teach guitar lessons, I've purchased this book multiple times as I tend to destroy them with the binding comb breaking and pages falling out and getting lost. Nothing against the quality of the book, I'm just really hard on them. This is the only guitar book I teach from. I've tried others, but find that the Hal Leonard series tends to be the best especially for younger learners. The same goes for their piano books.

I mean, what can we say? Hal Leonard's Guitar Method is legendary for a reason -- between this and Mel Bay, you can't go wrong as an introduction to the instrument.This edition has the first three complete levels included, which a dedicated student should be able to power through with no problem at all. Yes, the song selections are a little dated and have that kind of "old guy trying to be cool" vibe to them, but who cares? It's about note reading, common patterns, and getting used to the instrument, and in my opinion (with 30+ years of teaching) this is the way to go.Excellent value getting all three grades in one book too! And adding TAB reading is a valuable asset for future players as well.

Hat mir sehr gefallen!

Ben rilegato

Malmedy, le 28 Aout 2019Methode très agréable a compulsé particulièrement pour qui a déjà une base de jeux personnel. Elle traite chaque Accord individuellement , elle expose les bases rythmiques clairement, elle possède un répertoire mélodique des grands mélodies classiques et devenue classiques ce qui permet d'étoffer son propre répertoire. Les mélodies et accords sont exposés avec la double tablature académique et sont très clairement imprimée. J'aime beaucoup….aussi la confection avec anneaux centraux permet de lire les partition sans pinces à linge…..Excellent...AbM….

This is quite an old book now, but has stood the test of time, mainly because it is structured in a manner that does not swamp the beginner with too much detail all at once, but progressively introduces new material alongside the consolidation of what has already been studied.Consequently, I suspect that many experienced guitarists, such as myself, have recommended it to others, over several generations, thus making it a worthy means of evolving guitar-playing skills, which still retains great credibility today.
