- Book 2 of 2: Guitar Method
This guitar instruction book by guitarist Greg Koch is designed for intermediate players who want to expand their rhythm vocabulary and break free from repetitive patterns. Focused on rhythm guitar development, it provides practical material across rock, blues, jazz, country, funk, and more expressive “outside” styles, making it a versatile resource for players aiming to sound more confident, creative, and stylistically flexible in a wide range of musical settings.
The book includes over 200 riffs written in standard notation and guitar tablature, along with chord names for clear understanding and easy application. It comes with online audio access, allowing players to hear each example performed with precision and authentic feel. The included PLAYBACK+ functionality lets you slow down tracks without changing pitch, loop sections for focused practice, adjust keys, and isolate channels, making it easier to internalize each riff at your own pace and adapt them to your personal playing style.
Working through these riffs helps strengthen timing, groove, and stylistic awareness across genres. Instead of relying on memorized patterns, players develop a stronger sense of phrasing and musical context, making it easier to adapt to different playing situations such as band rehearsals, jam sessions, or live performance. The variety of styles also encourages experimentation, helping guitarists discover new approaches to rhythm playing.
