Finally Sounding Authentic R&B!
I've been wanting to play proper R&B and blues guitar for ages, and this book by John Ganapes delivers! The lessons are easy to follow, and the mix of notes and tablature is perfect. Learning soul, funk, and doo-wop styles is so much fun, and the online audio really helps you get the feel right. The PLAYBACK+ feature to slow down parts without changing pitch is a game-changer for a weekend player like me. Highly enjoyable and effective!
