I'm giving it a big thumbs up!
I bought this book because I'm a guitarist and one of my all-time favorite songs is "Birds of a Feather." I can honestly say that this book is completely accurate and well written. I'm playing all my favorite songs and feel just like Trey A. (minus the talent aspect). Do yourself a favor and buy it!

It's good.
I personally bought this book just for "Guyute" and have learned it almost note for note. There are other songs in it (such as "limb by limb") that are easy to pick up if you have the correct music for it. I recommend it to anyone who's interested in learning to play the songs properly.

Water In the Sky
Well, what can I say, it's completely accurate. You too will be glad to finally be able to learn Guyute note for note. The only thing is, well, go try learning Guyute note for note--it's hard. The only other thing about this transcription is that many of the songs on the album are not necessarily guitar based like they are on say Hoist or Rift. Because the boys just improved it up for many of the songs then added lyrics later you can't exactly sit around the campfire and play Frankie Says or Shafty. Even the songs that you would think should be very straightforward (Water in the Sky, Wading in the Velvet Sea) have complex guitar parts. All in all though, it's perfectly accurate and I'm glad I bought it.
