those plus Lee Wertman's stuff on modes and Sheets Of Sound are a must have.



well, whoever editted my post to say this is pretty lame :\
 
I have CG2 and it is a workout for sure and comes with some cool backing tracks to use what you have learned. If you think about the exercises you will have some great building blocks for improve imo, just his ideas of the pentatonic opened that scale up big time.

I would get it again in a heartbeat.

what is cg 2?-thanks-Pete
 
It's his second book - creative guitar vol 2
The first is more for beginner;s, from what Ive read. I just jumped into # 2
 
Creative Guitar 2 is an excellent book. I was just playing through the major scale patterns an hour ago.

Sheets of Sound is tough. At least for me. The stretches kill me.

+1, im having a hard time getting into it to be honest. Im enjoying Guthrie's books more. Nothing against SOS, which is a great book. Maybe the Guthrie books just suit me better.
 
I just bought both 1 & 2 of Guthrie's book. They both look great so far...

EDIT: Been going thru them. Great material, highly recommended.
 
i LOVE Sheets Of Sound!! What i like is that its not a "method book". its just an offering of "stuff" almost, and what you get out of it is whatever you put in. i like to randomly just open to a page and start shedding on the ideas. i have The first Guthrie book but never quite dove into it all that hard
