Detail 01
Combines the separate volumes of the series into one book, so you are not buying levels piecemeal.
Detail 02
Audio examples let you hear the timing and feel that notation alone cannot convey.
Detail 03
Video shows hand position and picking motion, which is where most self-taught blues players go wrong.
Detail 04
Material is written for unamplified guitar. Fingerpicking and open-position work rather than amp-dependent lead playing.
Detail 05
Lessons build in sequence rather than functioning as a song collection you dip into randomly.
Final check

Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
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.
Yes. The techniques transfer, though the material is written around acoustic playing, so some fingerpicking passages suit an acoustic better.
No. It assumes you can already play basic chords. Start with a general beginner method first, then come to this for blues specifics.
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.
