Hal LeonardJimi Hendrix - Signature Licks Guitar Tab (Book/Online Audio)
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Hal Leonard's note-for-note breakdown of Jimi Hendrix guitar parts in tab, with online audio. For intermediate players learning his vocabulary.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitarists who already play barre chords and want Hendrix phrasing
- Learning thumb-over rhythm and double-stop fills by ear and eye
- Practicing against recorded audio instead of a metronome alone
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- First-week beginners still learning open chords
- Players without reliable internet, since the audio is online
- Anyone wanting complete transcriptions of every song end to end
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
Access is through a code in the book. You need an internet connection and a browser or app to hear the examples.
Detail 03
Signature Licks format
Focuses on the defining licks and parts rather than every bar of every song, so it is study material more than a songbook.
Detail 04
Hendrix repertoire
Expect heavy use of bends, thumb-fretted chords, and E-shape double stops. Wide stretches and aggressive vibrato throughout.
Detail 05
Printed book
Lies open on a stand and takes pencil marks for fingering notes, unlike a tablet screen that sleeps mid-practice.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01The audio code is single-use; buying secondhand may leave you with the book only
- 02No guitar, amp, or effects are included, and none of the tones are provided
- 03Hendrix often tuned down a half step, so pitch may not match your guitar as-is
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?
No. The parts are written in tab, which tells you which fret on which string. Reading standard notation is not required to work through it.
02Does it come with a CD?
No. The audio is accessed online using a code included with the book, so you need internet access to hear the examples.
03Is this good for a beginner?
It is a stretch. The material assumes you can already fret cleanly, bend in tune, and hold a rhythm part. Six months of playing helps.
04Does it teach whole songs or just licks?
It breaks down the signature parts and licks that define the playing, with explanation, rather than presenting straight full-length transcriptions.
