Good Music at a Fair Price
I was pleased with the purchase of the music book. It had a number of songs that I liked and could easily play. Will probably order another book down the road.

Good Collection of 3 Artists
Good collection of songs by Jackson Browne (minus Doctor My Eyes), The Eagles and Neil Young. Good chord notation and lyrics, although only the treble clef is shown.

A lively friend
If you are a beginner, or you already play a lot, this is a good tool. I like a lot of the songs in this book; it’s great around the campfire, or for home-generated entertainment. If you’re looking for an easy arrangement of doable popular tunes “good choice”. If you want all the notes of a particular solo, don’t think so.

Best lessons for my first book.
Bought this book after just one month of lessons. Great tunes to learn to. Has plenty of challenges, for the future . I really enjoy, and relax while playing in this book everyday.

All that I expected.
As a beginner, I do not know what I expected or if I was over my head. The music book is incredible for a beginner. There are so many songs in the book that saved me money kooking for single songs on line. I will be busy for a long time playing/learning from one book.

Beginner guitar
This is a great book for any beginner. It allows you to play songs that you love without requiring a ton of skill. And there are quite a few songs in this book.

Good beginners music
A great collection of music, which almost everyone will know. The music has been simplified for the beginner, so it doesn't sound exactly like the original, but it's close enough to sound good. A great buy for the price.

So easy a child can do it.
I taught my daughter to play the guitar this summer and she has memorized every song in this book. This is an incredible song book for beginners and anyone that truly loves to play great rock.

Just read the title...
The title says "Made Easy" so if you are a beginner and just want to learn the chords to familiar songs, this should work. If you are looking for transcriptions, tab, etc. then you are probably not a beginner and should look for another book.

Pure beginner found songs I could understand
Only owned a guitar for 2 months and Neil Young has songs that make sense to those of us with very limited abilities. The hardest thing about being such a novice is finding music that is attainable through a litle practice and satisfies your need to realize improvement. This book has lots of favorites that take you beyond your practice routines.

If you want to play something that sounds like...
This book is the second and last of this type that I will buy. It is easy to play, but is not a note for note transcription. SO you can buy this and sound like you are playing a popular song, but not quite. If you are really just getting started learn your fretboard and buy the actual tabs for the songs you want to learn, you might as well learn to play them the right way.

Get playing fast
Are you tired of playing the crappy songs your music teacher or music books are having you doing? Pick up this book and you'll be playing songs that other people will be able to recognize...fast. A real confidence builder.

It's OK to start out playing guitar
I initially bought this book when I first started playing the guitar. All the strum patterns are the same for each song which confused me initially but when you begin to strum in different timing I think that by picking your own strum patterns the chords that this book has works pretty good. If your familar with the songs and begin to play the guitar for a couple weeks, I think you'll end up liking this book.
