The Ventures - Pipeline | Electric Guitar Tab Songbook for Intermediate Players | Surf Rock Sheet Music Collection with Standard Notation, Performance Notes and Classic Guitar Study Repertoire

I am friends with the Ventures. This book is good.

It's painfully obvious from the first measures that whoever compiled the TABLATURE is not a guitar player. The tab often has fingerings that no human could or would ever play -- 2 or 3-note voicings 8 or 10 frets apart. Also, note carefully the horrible selection of tunes included. There is no Perfidia, neither the true/correct version of Hawaii 5-0, and so on. Many of these songs were filler on their albums; the worst of the worst. The book is a disgrace, considering all the wonderful tunes they could have included but didn't. Compared to the standard you'll see in tab books today, such as "guitar recorded versions", this Ventures book rates easily as the absolute worst (although I have indeed heard of a few others that come close, such as some of the Beatles tab books). Hard Pass on this one.

My dad has always loved the Ventures for a long time,hes an oldies lover !, He recently started picking up a guitar to learn some of his fav songs as he can't have his drum set in the house,he found this book to inspire him to learn his songs,and entertain him,photos,info and the front cover of this book all made him a very happy man !, I recommend this to anyone who is trying to make a gift to anyone who loves oldies and would love to learn how to play some of The Venture's tunes !Happy Father's Day dad !

Great learning too. If you are into surf music, this definitely works. All you need is your effort and determination.

Good songs, all the intros, tab, everything you need. The first song I ever played was "Walk don't run" and ever since I have been a fan of the Ventures. This book also has pages with the lowdown on the members in the group and to be able to read about them, that was an added bonus, . I highly recommend this book. Delivery was fast and the book was in great shape.5 stars

I liked the book very well. I've played many of their songs during my life time on my guitar and did like it. I wished they had had Percoldator on it however. I've always wanted the exact notes they did on that song. However, the book had quite a few songs and surf guitar players will love it as I did.

Very good product. Easy to follow. I would recommend the book. It is worth the money. That is all I have to say.

Used this book as a teaching aid for my guitar student... they gotta learn old school first!! I scanned the pages and used as a power point instruction for the class.

I bought the Hal-Leonard The Ventures guitar play-along and really enjoyed it and wanted more ventures sheet music. The Ventures-Pipeline in my personal opinion has arrangements that is not practical to play. It isn't completely a waste as I modified as required and play parts of the songs as licks. I do regret purchasing it though as I think there are better sheet music out there. I recommend buying the Hal-Leonard one.

The Ventures sind vom Schwierigkeitsgrad eher einfach, jedoch liegt auch in der Einfachheitoft das gewisse Etwas, weshalb ich diese Band gerne höre.Vorgeschichte:Ich habe mir das Notenbuch (mit Tabs) geholt, weil am Wochenende mit Kollegeneine "Unplugged Session" stattfinden sollte, man aber keine Titel auf dem Plan hatte.Es musste also schnell etwas auf die Beine gestellt werden. Ansich kann man viele Stücke vonThe Venture auch per Gehör austüffteln, aber um Zeit zu sparen habe ich mir dieses Buch besorgt.Aufbau und Meinung:Die Noten sind nicht zu klein gedruckt und die Qualität des Buches ist auch gut (Einband und Papier).Nur musste ich leider wieder feststellen das gewisse Tabs keinen Sinn ergeben.Klanglich schon, aber spieltechnisch umständlich bis unmöglich.Gerade Anfänger mag sowas in die Irre führen und im schlimmsten Fall suchen diesedann den Fehler bei sich selbst, was den Spaß und Lernerfolg beeinträchtigt.Eine Korrektur mit dem Bleistift blieb also nicht aus.Auch wenn es sich in meinem Fall um eine Unplugged Session mit einer Westergitarre handelt,so finde ich das die Noten etwas mehr "Saft" vertragen könnten.Bei vielen Stücken werten zwei Töne das Stück auf und lassen es näher am Original klingen.Es wird oft zwischen der Begleitung und der Melodie gewechselt, wobei die Melodien im Vordergrund stehen.Meiner Meinung nach wäre es besser gewesen eine Spur für die Begleitung und eine Spur für die Melodie zu erstellen.Manchmal ändert sich auch die Begleitung, dies wird jedoch im Buch nicht erwähnt.Wie gesagt kann man das alles raushören, aber die meisten Leute kaufen sich ein Buch,um nicht mitdenken zu müssen und einfach zu spielen.Die 25 aufgeführten Stücke wurden übrigens von verschiedenen, bestimmten Alben genommen:01. Apache: from the CD "The Ventures Play Telstar"02. Beethoven Five-O: from the CD "Wild Again!"03. Bulldog: from the CD "Another Smash"04. Eight Miles High: from the CD "Go With The Ventures"05. Flashback: from the CD "Surfing"06. Hang On Sloopy: from the CD "Where The Action Is"07. Honky Tonk: from the CD "Walk, Don't Run" Vol#108. Let's Go: from the CD "Let's Go!"09. (The) Lonely Surfer: from the CD "Wild Again!"10. Mr. Moto: from the CD "Going To The Ventures Dance Party!"11. Out Of Limits: from the CD "The Ventures In Space"12. Penetration: from the CD "The Ventures In Space"13. Pipeline: from the CD "Surfring"14. Quicksilver: from the CD "Wild Again!"15. Road Runner: from the CD "Twist With The Ventures"16. Runaway: from the CD "Let's Go!"17. Shanghied: from the CD "Twiste Withe The Ventures"18. Tall Cool One: from the CD "The Fabulous Ventures"19. Tequila: from the CD "The Ventures"20. Torquay: from the CD "The Ventures"21. Walk, Don't Run: from the CD "Walk, Don't Run" Vol#122. Web Surfing: from the CD "New Depths"23. Wham!: from the CD "Wild Again!"24. Wipe Out: from the CD "Let's Go!"25. Wooly Bully: from the CD "The Ventures A Go-Go"Eine CD, wie es viele Bücher von Hal Leonard haben, wäre sehr praktisch gewesen.

What great tunes. So fun and easy. The tab seems to be spot on. Well written and easy to follow.

Good book most of the ventures hits
