Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Does this include tab for the guitar solos?

No. Chord Songbook titles give chord symbols over lyrics. For solos and riffs note-for-note, you need a tab or recorded-versions edition.

02Are chord diagrams included?

Books in this series include chord grids for the shapes used, so you can look up an unfamiliar chord without a separate reference.

03Can I use this for ukulele or piano?

The chord symbols transfer, but the diagrams are guitar shapes. Ukulele and piano players would be better served by an instrument-specific edition.

04Which songs are in it?

Contents vary by edition, so check the song list on the back cover or product page before buying if specific titles matter to you.
