Thanks for the suggestion, went right out and purchased it from B&N bookstore. It is really an encyclopedia, full of info. On page 68 it shows the position of the fretted notes. A lot of theory included and the anatomy of acoustic and electric will really help me learn the "language" of the guitar techs. Can't forget to mention the chord dictionary.

Oh ya , can't forget to mention there are no crayons with this book. Maybe in the childrens section Haoli25 :lol:

Reading the Guitar Handbook, I understand the three-cord theory and progression in the Melissa lesson. Key of E; chord I - E, chord IV = A, chord V = B7.
