Daniels made gold with his series of guitar books. Heavy Guitar Vol 1&2 compliments the DweezleZappa lessons on Truefire perfectly, and will make you soar beyond heights as a Guitar God.

    A Terrific Place to Start Learning Guitar
  

*by B***9 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 14, 2010*

If you are unable to afford a guitar instructor, then at least invest in this book whether it's new or used. Why? You cannot possibly go wrong with it!There are naysayers out there who snub their nose at this book but in truth most of them wish they'd have been the first one to have written it. Richard Daniels talks about guitar mostly from a Rock Music point-of-view but in truth it's not just about Rock-n-Roll but playing guitar period. That covers a wide genre of music from blues to C&W.What I liked about this book was Daniels' laid back approach in the way he explains things. Each chapter is a world unto itself & while each one builds upon the previous ones that does not mean that's how you have to study it. Rather the fun is in jumping ahead here & there to find some good juicy parts like learning a fun mode such as the Phrygian to use in your Metal playing.I originally bought this book way back in the late 80's when I started to play guitar. I had an instructor for about 3 months & then fired him. I used this book & a slew of others ones to help me round out my playing & knowledge. While having an instructor is nice, usually they're all about theory which is NOT a bad thing but to me, it does get boring after a while.The HGB offers quite a bit of material in it that you can use immediately such as the first chapter on "Equipment" where Daniels covers things such as guitar necks, string gauges & the height between the strings & frets. To old hands, this is nothing new but when you're a complete Newbie, this is something that you only find in guitar repair guides.Then in the next chapter, "The Basics", Daniels covers things like how the strings are related to the keys on a piano. This can be helpful when trying to visualize a chord, scale or some heavier theory.In chapter 3, Daniels talks about "Chords & Structure" which he offers several of the most common chords found in Rock music but he also does a nice little discussion of intervals & tone relationships.Chapter 4 starts into "The Blues" and this is where things get interesting for Novices because Daniels shows you how a simple horizontal run on a fretboard can be done. He uses boxes to show where these are on the fretboard & when you're starting out, any trick that can help you remember runs & scales is a terrific idea!And there's a LOT more in this thin little book! Daniels even gives you his secret for copying licks & notes from songs though it is very dated. He uses a cassette tape recorder but today you can get `Learn-A-Lick' machines often built into effect pedal boards & amps.For the money, I'm very satisfied with this book. I lost my original somehow in the moving around all these years & purchased a new copy to refer to. It's worth it to me. If you're a novice or absolutely beginner, this is a VERY GOOD book for you to have!!I even like the scrollwork/artwork in the book which I think Daniels was using to get that illuminated Medieval manuscript feel. Thus I give it 5 out of 5 stars for completeness & clarity. Get a copy, you'll be thankful you did!
