- What people are saying:
-
- I own quite a few Muse Eek Books. The New York Guitar Method Primer Book Two takes some info from Music Theory Workbook for Guitar One and Two and some of the chords from Chord Workbook for Guitar. In my opinion if you are going to work with the NYGM books skip buying the Music Theory Books the complete books are contained within the Primer One, Two and NYGM V1 books. Chord Workbook on the other hand has a whole section in the back of the book for “Rhythm Changes” and reading chord voicings that in my opinion is worth owning as a separate book. It’s also much easier to look up a chord with CW1 because you have all the chords in one book. If you want to look up a chord in NYGM it could be found in a number of books. What I have enjoyed about the NYGM series is the logical progression it gives you. You can go and buy a bunch of Muse Eek Books but unless you contact Mr. Arnold and get a practice plan (Not a bad idea I did that) you won’t be sure how to organize all the material. NYGM does it for you so that’s a plus in my opinion. Muse Eek’s claim that the NYGM will take you crayons to perfume is true. I’m 55 years old and getting back to the guitar of my youth. This series really helped me fill in all the holes and get the confidence I needed to play again. A. Cox
- I own MT1 and MT2 and still got this book because it contains the information on diatonic chords. I’m a song writer and learning what chords go together is crucial to composing songs. This book is worth it just for that information. I also got the NYGM Primer 2 Ensemble book which helped me learn how to write out rhythms. I needed that to submit my music to be copyrighted so if that is something you need to do then get the ensemble book too. G. Simmons
- Great book! I found the extra scale patterns what Mr. A calls Modal Sequences to be very useful in my soloing. I was getting stuck with just playing up and down the scale and these scale patterns really helped me break out of that rut. I already new most of the chords basically it’s all your barre chords though the cycle 5 thing really helped me to memorize the chords in every key so that was useful. Overall I was happy with the book and would recommend it if you are a advanced beginner or intermediate with issues. P. Stacy.
- I’ve been working through the whole NYGM series. I wouldn’t recommend it if you are just a gut guitarist that neither wants nor feel you need a knowledge of what they are playing. For me I started feeling like a parrot after awhile. I could play solos and chords but had absolutely no idea what I was doing. Got me into some pretty embarrassing situations too so I said @uck it I’m going to get my @hit together. Luckily these books were available to help me out! F. Edwards.
Whether you are a total beginner or an advanced guitarist there is a book in this series that is perfect for you. GET STARTED TODAY!
