Review: Excellent book for understanding guitar music - Just an outstanding book. It's not really for dummies; you do need to know how to play the guitar and have some basic understanding of music, plus a desire to learn theory. Beginning guitarists, or those who just want to play popular songs probably won't want to put in the effort to grasp the bigger picture here. But for those who really want to learn, the instructor explains everything very clearly and takes you step by step. And learning theory is the way to go. I've played guitar, on and off, all my life for personal enjoyment. Took some lessons when I was a teen a long time ago. Late in life, I decided to take lessons again, and at first I just took songs to my teacher to learn how to play them. But then I discovered that after playing them 70 or 80 times -- in order to play them really well -- I would tire of them. So, I was constantly learning something new and forgetting what I learned before. I discussed this with my teacher and he recommended learning theory, then I could play anything. He's been teaching that, along with fun stuff to play, but I got this book as an additional guide. It's a lot more than that. Everything you need is here. It's really thorough. And done right. I find that I can open it to almost any page and just focus on that page, or maybe two pages, and learn something valuable, or reinforce something my teacher has taught me, or see how it relates to other things I've learned. Now, I play lead guitar to blues and jazz backing tracks, or I join the band as a guitarist on a favorite song, just to see how I can fit in. I find this a lot more fun. And soon I realized that music isn't that hard for the enthusiast, as it's just simple math with everything repeating over and over. Just get the basic patterns down and you can use them all over the fretboard. I've got a ways to go yet, but this is an excellent exercise for the older brain. Should have done it a long, long time ago. Takes some effort to get over the hump, but it's so worth it, and this book really helps! I haven't used the online resource yet... that's just one more feature. You can hear the examples, and the author also relates the keys, and chord progressions, and modes, etc -- to a lot of popular songs you'll know, so you can hear real-life examples. A really good book for the guitarist who wants to understand the structure of guitar music and then apply it all over the fretboard. A really practical feature is that once you learn how it works, you can easily change keys. I have some favorite keys, so if I find something I Like in A flat that I want to change to A or B or E, no problem. If I find something in F#m and I want to change to A minor of E minor, no problem. Much smarter way to approach guitar.
Review: Another Great Resource for Learning and Understanding Guitar Theory! - I am a great fan of Desi Serna. I have Fretboard Theory Volume I, Fretboard Theory Volume II and all of the CDs. Now, I have purchased Guitar Theory For Dummies to complete my collection. Guitar Theory For Dummies has a similar scope to Fretboard Theory Volume I and Fretboard Theory Volume II. However, it is combined, updated, redone, reorganized and formatted in the popular For Dummies style. It includes many updates and added content (like all new audio and video instruction including professionally recorded guitar play-along backing tracks). Desi Serna really makes guitar Fretboard theory interesting and easy to understand. His books and CDs really teach you guitar theory and will help your understanding of the guitar and what you are playing. In addition, Desi can be contacted and will respond to your questions. I would highly recommend his books and CDs to others.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Desi Serna knows his stuff!!
*by H***0 on December 5, 2018*

I’m a little more than halfway through this book and overall it is very helpful. I wouldn’t recommend this book for someone just starting on the guitar, but if you have some basics down then try this. The examples are helpful for the most part and the audio/video links are good too. Also, for me, one thing that helped is when I hit a topic that was confusing, I would just Youtube it for more explanations from other people to make it click. Music Theory is tough and it takes a multi-prong approach to help it sink in. Anyway, best of luck!
