Discovering Rock Guitar

Hugh Burns
A new title from the award-winning Schott Pop Styles series!

This book is perfect for those who have always wanted to play the guitar like legends such as Scotty Moore and Carlos Santana, or like the guitarists of Earth, Wind & Fire, T.Rex and the Beatles.

It contains a comprehensive study of twelve different pop guitar styles from 1950 'til today, such as disco, funk, Latin, reggae, sixties pop, glam and motown. Selected pieces help you to learn what matters with this music and what to pay attention to. Systematic exercises and songs specially composed for this purpose show everybody who wants to improve his/her performance what it is all about; they are complemented by information on important techniques, players, sounds, equipment and amps.

As a special bonus, the CD contains the complete demo tracks as well as backing tracks of all songs.

  • Exploring Jazz Piano Vol. 2

  • Improvising Blues Piano

Coming Soon:
