What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Songbook format
You get arrangements to play, not a method. There is no lesson sequence teaching you technique.
Detail 03
Classic rock repertoire
Material leans on rhythm parts and main riffs, which is where most of these songs live anyway.
Detail 04
Hal Leonard imprint
Licensed arrangements, so the songs are the real songs rather than sound-alike substitutes.
Detail 05

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need to read music for this?
Easy guitar books are built around chord frames and tab, so you can work through them without reading standard notation fluently.
02Are these the full original guitar parts?
No. Easy arrangements simplify the parts so they are playable early on. Solos and layered guitar parts get reduced.
03Will this work for electric and acoustic?
Yes. The arrangements are chords and single-note lines, so either instrument plays them. Tone is up to you.
04Is this enough to learn guitar from scratch?
No. It is a songbook, not a method. You need basic open chords and a strumming hand before it is useful.
