5 out of 5 stars Good Book.   November 14, 2007

This book is really helpful. I really like the way it's set up. Nothing but happy customers here.


5 out of 5 stars Good solid chord book   September 1, 2007
 11 out of 11 found this review helpful

This book is a good reference for all the basic voicings of every chord. If you want jazz chords (or any other genre of music) this book won't give it. If you don't have a chord reference book, or are unhappy with the one you have, this is the book you want.

The only drawback I found was I thought I was buying the spiral bound edition (for ease of use). This was not the case. I was under this false impression because there is a review on this book that remarked on the ease of use because of the spiral binding. So, if binding matters to you, you may want to confirm the binding before purchasing.

Caveat Emptor -- The spiral bound though smaller in size, has fewer pages (I would expect more pages to compensate for the size). It might not contain all the chords the regular edition does. Be sure to check this out if it matters to you.



5 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and Portable   March 11, 2007
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This is the best guitar chord encyclopedia I know of. It is comprehensive and portable, the spiral binding allows for easy hands free reference, and the price is right. Multiple voicings for chords are provided in chord diagram formmat. The introduction to chord theory is an added bonus as is the fingerboard chart on the back cover. Fits perfectly into a guitar case.


4 out of 5 stars know what you're buying   February 6, 2007

This book has tons of chords with tons of variations for each. However, you should know what you're getting before you buy it. This is NOT a chord progession book. It will not tell you how to use the chords. If you already know what chords you want to play, this book will help you find possible variations.

Very impressed! I've been using this book for 2 months now and have not yet run across a chord that is not in the book. Each cord also has every possible fingering variety. Discovered chords I never new exists. A must for musicians that are learning songs off the sheet music.
