Product Description
Johnny Rector has been recognized for years as one of America's top jazz guitar writers. Here, for the first time, he presents an analysis of modern chord progressions, extensions, alternations, substitutions and a "hands-on" series of exercises designed to utilize and apply these important concepts to the guitar fingerboard. This book was written as a self-study guide to the intermediate, advanced and professional guitarist who has not had the opportunity to study material of this kind with a first-class competent teacher-artist, although such a teacher can be of great assistance in learning to apply the material. It shows unusual chord forms and progressions beyond the basics. Written in standard notation.

Wonderful resource August 17, 2006

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I own originally studied from an older version of this book in two volumes published in the 50's by Play-Rite Publications. I have been a guitar teacher for many years always wished the books would be made available again so I could use them in instruction for current students. This is a revised version of those two books in a single volume, updated with some newer info a cd. All guitarists will benefit greatly from this study will enjoy playing the progressions. The knowledge contained in this book will stay with you open up many new ideas for chord substitutions making your playing exciting interesting. Johnny Rector presents the material in an interesting logical order. "Mel Bay's Deluxe Encyclopedia of Guitar Chord Progressions" by Johnny Rector, along with "Mel Bay's Rhythm Guitar Chord System" are two books every jazz /or rock guitarist should own. 5 stars!
