A comprehensive guide to the electric guitar, with over 600 photographs, illustrations and exercises

The electric guitar is arguably the most important musical instrument of the modern age. This book explains how to buy the right instrument and set it up, and how to play. It demonstrates basic techniques and chords, and introduces genres such as rock ’n’ roll, jazz, heavy rock, metal and blues.

With expert step-by-step instructions, an illustrated directory of over 250 guitars, and over 600 photographs and musical exercises, this comprehensive manual is an essential guide for all electric guitarists.
