Play Acoustic tells the people how to play "the instrument of the people." This detailed and beautifully illustrated book explores the history of the acoustic guitar, from the jazz age to the folk revolutions of the early 1960s and late 1990s to the current rebirth of bluegrass and the singer-songwriter boom of the past decade. It teaches readers the techniques of 11 playing styles, using exercises suitable to novice players and working up to full pieces and advanced techniques. The accompanying CD offers examples of the exercises in the book, covering styles such as folk, rock, pop, blues, country, bluegrass, jazz, advanced finger style, world music, and bottleneck. A 32-page insert with four-color photos is included.

5.0 out of 5 stars - Awesome, as good as "The Piano Handbook" (similar style), October 8, 2007
By Chris "the most passionate music/film fan alive." (Philly suburbs, PA)

«This book is fantastic. The two CDs it comes with are great, too. Not all exercises are on the CDs... but there are a TON of exercises to work on. The author covers many, many styles.. classical, folk, "jangle", blues, rock, etc.. arpeggios, jangle sequences, fingerpicking, scale practice, chords, altered tunings..

You can't find a better book on acoustic guitar instruction. I LOVE the stuff put out by Backbeat Books... they're ALWAYS of the highest quality, and the most practical AND fun.... and here's yet another book that cites the Smiths as a reference with a certain style/sound. The Smiths (and especially Johnny Marr's work within the band)... that's great guitar, there.

Do yourself a favor and pick this up. The title's generic, I know... but when they say Play Acoustic, they mean it.

If you play piano, too... you can do no better than the Piano Handbook (same publisher, same spiral-bound book, same look and layout). A great find.»
