The tablature in this book is by no means 100% spot on accurate, but it’s pretty good. What’s so cool about this book is that there are so many songs. A quick flip through the table of contents is bound to turn up at least 20 songs you have always wanted to learn how to play. Having it all assembled in one location is a great value.

This guitar tab book is loaded with some really cool acoustic tunes. the only downfall is the pages are newspaper thin and rip easily. i have been in a haste and flipped the pages a little quick and put small tears in 5 pages. a quick fix for a little scotch tape. still a very good source of tablature

This is a great selection of songs for the price. The only fatal flaw is that the tabs are TOO detailed. Some people may like to know every single missed note, mistake, or partial strum in the song, but for me, I find that the book sacrifices practicality for the sake of accuracy. I much prefer a little less detailed (and easier to use) tabs like those in Warner Bros. “Greater Guitar White Pages”.

Very disappointing book. The book is thick as an oversized phone book which makes it hard to keep open. The cover and pages are so thin that they tear very easily. Although there are some accurate tabs, there are also some inaccurate or incomplete. What i dislike the most is the songs that use a capo like “Here Comes The Sun”. The song is capoed at the 7th fret, so when the notes that read 7 they instruct you to hit all the 7 notes as open. You basicly have to rewrite the entire tab which is useless to me. There are several songs tabbed that way, although about 2 of them are tabbed the regular way. “Let’s Live For Today” Tune Down 1 1/2 steps, “American Woman” is an open G tuning, a lot of BS. On the other hand there are a lot of songs that are good tabs and very useful, just don’t expect the entire book to be good. Overall a good book but needs work. Be sure to have some good reading glasses.

For the amount of songs included, the book lacks recent quality songs. A lot of the songs were of no interest to me and I rarely use the book. The format was reasonable although I am sure it could be improved. If you can’t use the Internet to obtain your tabs, perhaps you would like this large, awkward, small-type, book of old songs.
