likes: w/ a little practice you can get Results in your guitar playing. i like how each sample is taken at different tempos. The book is also well structured and focuses on key areas that a guitarist might encounter (i.e. bends, sweeps, ear training, etc). dislikes: the examples aren't separated by cd tracks like in other instructional books, instead each track has several examples in them which is kind of a pain if youre trying out an example (in the middle of a track) and then you want to rewind but you end up in the beginning of the track. Final note: aside from the cd track problem, this book good to have as an instructional tool and puts a great great deal of emphasis on the key areas of guitar playing, err...i mean, guitar shredding!!! I, myself have 2 copies of this book (why? i dont know) and have recommended it every guitarist i know that aim to better their guitar skills.Read full review
Good book, good exercises, but the CD just kills it. Rather than put each exercise on its own track on the CD, the exercises are bunched up with multiple exercises in a track. So, for example, let's say you want to work on exercise 4, and you need to listen to that one over and over. Well, before you can listen to exercise 4 on the CD, you have to listen to exercises 1, and 2, and 3, before you get to 4 because they're all bunched into one track. Then, when you hit the Back button on your cd player to go back and start exercise 4 over, it's right back to Exercise 1, then 2, then 3 again before you can listen to 4. Who's unimaginably stupid idea was that?
Very interesting book..helpful in every detail!!

Like how examples were relevant. If u needed to work on trills or hammer ons or finger independence everything they're all there. Not to mention a bit of music writing and heaps of right hand stuff as well. As for the cd issue, well say exercises 1-5 are on one track, thats because they all focus on finger independence. if u hate that just use the pc windows media player lol.
Great resource
