This can be learned in Youtube but I kinda prefer learning through books but I prefer the structure and depth that a book offers. This one is created simple and direct and I can say that even a teen can catch up with this. I’m specially glad that the author added troubleshooting tips (a lifesaver when I hit a snag). It’s straightforward which I like.

The book is written simply and teaches well how to start right away, which we all want when learning a new instrument. I like the structure and how it teaches for absolute beginners like me. Good book!
