Kein Instrument steht wie die E-Gitarre für die moderne oder klassische Rockmusik. Die E-Gitarre ist neben ihrer akustischen Verwandten sicherlich das populärste Musikinstrument. Und das hat auch seine Gründe: Mit kaum einem anderen Instrument kann man so viel Leidenschaft, Kraft und Ausdrucksstärke beweisen. Jon Chappell zeigt Ihnen, wie Sie die Gitarre richtig halten und stimmen, wie Sie Akkorde und Riffs spielen und Spieltechniken wie Hammer-Ons, Pull-Offs, Slides, Bending und Co. meistern. Sie erfahren alles über die verschiedenen Rockgenres - von Rock'n'Roll und Classic Rock bis Jazz und Heavy Metal. Und natürlich macht Sie dieses Buch auch mit dem Equipment des angehenden Rockmusikers vertraut: Verstärker, Verzerrer und andere Effektgeräte. So erhalten Sie eine umfassende Einführung in dieses vielseitige Instrument. Und weil alle Theorie grau ist und damit Sie gleich richtig loslegen können, finden Sie auf der beiliegenden Audio-CD zahlreiche Beispieltracks zum Anhören und Nachspielen.
