The Korena take

A blues-focused guitar method book with CD and DVD. For a player who already knows basic chords and wants structured blues instruction rather than scattered lessons.

Detail 01

Combines the separate volumes of the series into one book, so you are not buying levels piecemeal.

Detail 02

CD included

Audio examples let you hear the timing and feel that notation alone cannot convey.

Detail 03

DVD included

Video shows hand position and picking motion, which is where most self-taught blues players go wrong.

Detail 04

Acoustic focus

Material is written for unamplified guitar. Fingerpicking and open-position work rather than amp-dependent lead playing.

Detail 05

Method book format

Lessons build in sequence rather than functioning as a song collection you dip into randomly.

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I need to read music to use this?

Blues method books of this type use tablature alongside standard notation, so you can work through it reading tab. Learning to read notation alongside is optional.

02Can I use this with an electric guitar?

Yes. The techniques transfer, though the material is written around acoustic playing, so some fingerpicking passages suit an acoustic better.

03Is this for complete beginners?

No. It assumes you can already play basic chords. Start with a general beginner method first, then come to this for blues specifics.

04What is on the CD and DVD?

The CD carries audio versions of the book's examples; the DVD carries video demonstration. Both are meant to be used alongside the printed lessons.
