Book Reviews of Fretboard Logic: The Reasoning Behind the Guitar's Unique Tuning
Book Review: Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been an on and off "try to learn the guitar" player for about 15 years. I received the box set for xmas. I have learned more in one week than I have in the last 15 years. This is simply brilliant. Yes, you can find some CAGED theory on the internet for free... But I have yet to find any useful CAGED scale theory. This is unbelievable. I am more excited about playing my guitar than ever before. It is totally like the light going on. Wow. I can't believe the things I have learned in the last week using volume I alone. I used to avoid songs that were tabbed with a capo... no problem finding the chord somewhere else now. I used to attempt 3 chord theory with a few chords... now I can goof off in any key anywhere on the fretboard and add some soloing to it as well. Awesome. I would give it 6 stars if I could. I have purchased many guitar books and videos... this blows them all away. I can't imagine anyone choosing to teach guitar any other way after trying this. I would recommend guitar teachers to check this out. I now feel like I am only limited by my physical skills... no longer is there a creativity or an understanding road block. I may buy this book for all of my guitar buddies.
Book two connects book 1 in a music theory way and allows modifications of the book 1 patterns according to traditional music theory (minors, sevenths, different scales.. etc.). If you have some basic music theory knowledge, book one will keep you busy being creative for a long time. The DVD seems pretty good for the "too lazy to read" people. I did purchase the entire box set, but I received more than I expected just from book I alone.
Brilliant!
Summary of Fretboard Logic: The Reasoning Behind the Guitar's Unique Tuning
Volume I of the series precisely explains the pattern organization of the guitar's fretboard which results from the instrument's unique tuning. All music played on the guitar, in a sense, gets filtered through the fretboard matrix of strings and frets, so it is essential to have an understanding of how the playing area of the instrument works. It is the one area which will be common to all the others you will learn. Fretboard Logic teaches it both as a completely separate area of musical education and as a prerequisite for more advanced learning.Instruments & Performers Books
