Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Play-along book of Def Leppard guitar transcriptions with online audio. For intermediate players learning the parts note for note.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitarists learning Def Leppard songs from accurate transcriptions
- Practicing with backing tracks when no band is available
- Working on late-70s and 80s hard rock rhythm and lead phrasing
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners who cannot yet read tab or hold basic chord shapes
- Players wanting theory instruction rather than song transcriptions
- Anyone who only wants the audio; the book is the main content
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.
Detail 02
Online audio, not a CD
Tracks stream or download via a code in the book, so you need internet access to retrieve them.
Detail 03
Play-along format
Audio comes with full-band and guitar-removed versions, so you can hear the part then take it over.
Detail 04
Standard notation and tab
You can use it without reading notation, though the notation carries rhythm detail tab alone doesn't.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Audio is accessed by code; a used copy may have a code already redeemed.
- 02Some parts use altered or dropped tunings, so a second guitar helps.
- 03No instructional lessons here. It's transcriptions and tracks, not a method book.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include a CD?
No. Audio is online, retrieved with a code printed in the book. You stream it or download it.
02Is it tab or standard notation?
Both. Each song appears in standard notation with tab below it, so you can read whichever you're comfortable with.
03Can I slow the tracks down?
Hal Leonard's online player includes tempo adjustment and looping, which lets you work through fast passages at reduced speed.
04What level do I need to be?
Intermediate. The transcriptions are the actual recorded parts, not simplified arrangements, so basic chords and tab reading are assumed.
