Summary: Great for guitarist learning chords.
Review: I bought this book when I started to learn guitar. I must have looked at it almost every day the first year.I rarely look at it now, because, thanks to this book, I know the chords. But just the other day I looked up a chord I had forgotten. The first time I've used this book in a year. There are other chord books that have more chords and photographs, but this book has most of the important chords with easy diagrams to understand the chord. Those other books are also three to four times more expensive than this book. Great for beginning guitarists or those who have dropped guitar and started again after a long lapse and also a great reference.

Summary: better to learn chord construction
Review: This book will be more useful to guitarists than to keyboardists, but for guitarists as well as for keyboardists it is still more useful to learn the principles of chord construction, voicing, and voice-leading than to consult a recipe book. For keyboardists interested in practical and theoretical information particular to the rock idiom I recommend PENTATONIC SCALES FOR THE JAZZ-ROCK KEYBOARDIST by Jeff Burns.
