Reviews for 101 Riffs and Solos for 4-String Cigar Box Guitar: Essential Lessons for 4-String Slide Cigar Box Guitar

"""A source of valuable knowledge"" A. Maxwell ""I got this book to accompany a cigar box guitar that my husband had been wanting for Christmas. While there are some great videos on YouTube to provide instruction, this book breaks down the fundamentals that you need to learn before you can put songs together. It is essential reading for those new to three-four-string guitars with or without a fret. Well written and easy to use. After just one night with this book, I was in another room and was asking my husband if it was him playing the blues or a recording. It was him!"" Mel"
