Having More Fun with My Guitar!
I've been stuck in the same old pentatonic patterns for ages, but this book by Tom Kolb has genuinely helped me expand my playing. It's so enjoyable to work through, and the online audio makes it easy to hear how it's supposed to sound. I'm an adult learner, and it feels completely achievable. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to solo more freely!

A Comprehensive Guide for Guitar Students
This Tom Kolb book is a fantastic teaching tool! The clear tablature and 'beginner to advanced' approach make it suitable for a wide range of students. It's excellent for developing fretboard visualization beyond basic boxes and truly helps students understand how to connect patterns. The engraving quality is top-notch, aiding in easy reading and practice.

Elevating Guitar Accompaniment and Leads
Though for guitar, this instructional book is excellent for understanding how to create more nuanced parts within a band setting. Connecting pentatonic patterns effectively means richer accompaniment textures and more interesting lead lines that complement a singer or other instruments. The examples are clear and offer great material for developing versatility and musicality.
