Summary

The process of learning chords as shapes makes the guitar an easy instrument to learn, but this initial boon soon becomes a handicap for the serious player. This compact dictionary of over 500 popular chords in their most common voicings features clear photographs and easy-to-follow-diagrams and instructions. Discover all the secret chords used by professional session guitarists, and other essential chords in their most common voicings, and unlock the key to taking your guitar playing to a new level.

Following on from the hugely successful Guitar Chord Bible, this new directory includes 500 more illustrated chords for rock, pop, folk, blues, country, jazz, and classical guitar. The spiral binding allows you to lay the book flat for easy reference while playing. Fingering diagrams for each chord are clearly indicated on a fretboard, and tips on technique are given together with relevant chord sequences.

This is not just another chord book. This book functions as both a reference resource and a self-tuition manual. Whether your musical style favors rock, pop, blues, soul, jazz, funk, country, or classical, this handy take-anywhere volume puts the techniques for making great guitar music at your fingertips, and sets you on the road to becoming a true chordmaster!
