Review: Good Book - Great book! Quick shipping. There is a lot to learn from his book for even experienced players, but it is a good book for new players also.
Review: An idea book, not an instruction book - I compare this book to the companion volume on Classical Guitar in the same series, and the comparison is not favorable. The book on Classical Guitar begins at the beginning and proceeds in an orderly way into more developed techniques. This book on Acoustic Guitar only claims to be a "graded course": most of the content is for the guitar player who wants to try other "styles" of playing. The author seems not to know how to deal with the beginner, who gets a mere 16 pages. I give the publisher credit for trying to compress a lot into the book, and the diagrams are very clear (not always correct); but the beginner or intermediate player needs to proceed from the known to the unknown. One can find answers to many questions about guitar technique in this book, but finding them is very difficult, as there is no index. The typeface and notation are too small for my eyes: again, this problem is not found in the volume on Classical Guitar, which would have been a much better model for this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Reference/Text Book
*by O***A on June 6, 2012*

This book is a must for amateur musicians who have a wide appetite for different styles of music and want a glimpse into it all. They even cover "Gypsy Jazz" (or Django Reinhardt, the only gypsy jazz guitarist I know) Well done.
