Meh.
It has the content, but it’s out of order. A horrible companion if you’re making comparisons to the physical book. Just buy the paperback. It seems that Hal Leonard is not very invested in providing quality digital content.

Excellent beginner’s resource!
Solid resource for beginners. Gradual progression in difficulty with popular licks like Greensleeves, Star Spangled banner etc thrown in early enough to keep you motivated. There are youtube support videos for all the tracks that someone has created. All in all a great resource.

Shown to professional guitar player
I shown this book to a professional flamenco guitar player who is also my Spanish teacher and he said that this book will allow me to go anywhere I want to with this book, whether it’s fingerpicking country songs or heavy metal I’ll be able to branch off from this book alone. He also learned from books so he knows a good book when he sees one and he was super impressed with this one.

Best book for beginners with old time ethic.
This is a very comprehensive intro to the guitar. If one were to buy only one book to begin this should be the one. I have gifted it to two others already who were just beginning. For those who do not already read music, this will get them up to primary speed easily. If one were to simply follow this instruction and remain OFF YouTube, they would become proficient. The YouTube gig only complicates the process as well as displays many bad options. Just get a private quiet place and work through it. There is no shortcut, no play in 5 minutes. Just get over it and LEARN it properly. Without that ideal as a guide you will simply have a guitar in the closet somewhere soon. Without the old time ethic of simply settling in to actually learn something students will always give up and drift away from the goal.

Essential Book, but get the one with audio files.
Must have book for beginners to learn how to read sheet music. Beware, though, that this version does not have the accompanying audio files which makes things less useful since you can’t see how something is played, particularly for the more obscure tunes. Overall, would buy again if I lost it, it I’d get the one that has the audio files.

Outstanding method book
This book is outstanding!If you want to teach or learn by method, this book is really hard to beat. By the time you’re through all three sections, you’ll be able to:-Read music-play most any chord in a pop fake book-know more than basic rhythms-know finger picking patterns (including Travis picking)Once done, you’ll be able to pick up just about any guitar songbook and play along.

Not a bad start
This is more for a begginer however its lessons do go from very begginers to the experts. In the start it does tell you how a scale is formatted and notes are counted, does spend time teaching you to read them. However thats what I wanted, yes I know the scale (I played clarinet in school) yes I know how to read notes. I also didn’t know how to play a C on a guitar. This is not really for someone who wants to just play songs on this is more for someone who wants to learn a wide verity of songs, from country to rock, classical to metal. If you want to specialize in one maybe this book isn’t for you. However I like this book because its not just a tab book of here is Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name” (its playing on the TV at this time) or whatever song you may want to play.

Pay attention to which of these you are buying. I didn’t as I assumed they all came with audio access.If the particular version you are purchasing does not specifically state audio access you will not be able to access the online audio files to play along with.Lesson format seems solid – unfortunately I’ll be purchasing a second copy so I have online access.

Received promptly and without product bloat.
I hate going to music stores: limited choices, inflated prices on materials written decades ago, trying to find options sourced from other stores… Modern music outlets just suck.The fact that I can buy the same book online, minus the triple inflated price point because of DRM coded audio books included, is amazing. Wife and sister-in-law will love using this to learn and for me to brush up on my music reading skills that are lacking.

Hal Leonard’s marketing sucks – Buy books from fundamental changes instead
So here’s the deal I got exactly what I ordered.There are two versions of the book.One is about 10 bucks more and under the “guitar method” on the front cover, top left, there is (in 10 point smaller type “Audio Access Included”).My book doesn’t have that. I purchased this precisely because the Bass Book came with audio, I just didn’t realise there is a version without the audio. And as others have pointed out, why would you sell a version without the audio.This is pretty scummy, I don’t really mind paying extra (but get this: audio is *free* with the excellent “fundamental changes” books). But having two versions, with no way to get the extra content is just annoying.I went to the Hal Leonard website and there seems to be no option to purchase the audio tracks.Amazon should make it clearer in the listing that there are two versions. So now I am faced with the choice of just using this as is, or returning it (which is a hassle).As the other 1 star reviews might indicate this is just dumb deceptive marketing. Change the cover in a more visible way, or offer the means to purchase the content online. how hard could the latter be? you’d actually make customers happy.Stupid, stupid, stupid.Makes me want to avoid Hal Leonard products in future. And that’s a shame, because the content seems pretty good.

Helpful for beginners
I am using this book to learn to play the guitar (a challenge at my age-senior). The book is helpful-it seems to go at the right pace and includes interesting songs from a variety of genres. I like the fact that it uses mostly music notation instead of tabs- it helps to learn to read music. Only regret is that it doesn’t come with the Cds.

Very thorough
Exactly what I was looking for. I’ve been teaching myself to play and using a lot of online courses but there is nothing that compares to starting from scratch and learning the proper way. This book does not spend a lot of time on form but it does provide the rudimentary basics beginning with basic notes and music reading. If I am ever able to master everything this book has to offer I will not only be able to play guitar, I will be a musician.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone that want to learn to play the guitar!!! I have been playing acoustic Guitar for several years using tabs.. I decided i would like to learn to read music and play it on my guitar…. This book makes reading music and playing it super easy!!! You learn the notes one string at a time, at your own pace…. And it don’t stop there you learn chords,strumming(something i had problems with) and more. I have other lesson books that don’t come anywhere close to comparing to this book…

The Best, Most Complete Basic Guitar Method Book
I have been teaching guitar for more than 40 years, and over those years I spent a lot of time with a couple of other popular guitar methods, specifically Alfred’s Basic Guitar and the similarly titled book published by Mel Bay.In my opinion, the Hal Leonard guitar method is more complete than any of its competitors. I used to teach chords on my own, and strumming and finger picking techniques, and leave the book to teach note reading, but the Hal Leonard book does it all and, most importantly, it seems to introduce new things at the right times in the student’s development.

I use this and the Mel Bay books to teach beginner students (they are very similar methods, but each set of books include different examples to choose from when teaching). I have no complaints, though I do recommend using these books and supplementing them with your own exercises when teaching.

Excellent book for beginning guitarist, and for other players needing music reading practice
This book is good for kids and adults alike. Goes nice and easy, nothing too complicated, but still covers all the basics. Would highly recommend for anyone just beginning to play guitar. It’s also a great refresher for those who have been playing chords awhile, but never learned to read music. I’ve been playing guitar for 8 years, but mostly chords. I never really practiced reading music. My son is now taking lessons, and his teacher uses this book. I’m now learning along with my son. It’s never too late to teach an old dog a new trick!

Excellent blueprint, here are some tips…
This is not a “so you want to rock” book you find at the music store chain, this is to drumming what sanding and joinery is to a woodworker. Anybody that calls themselves a drummer has this hurdle to climb, a must for a serious drummer. My 1st teacher gave me this and “Stick Control” in the 1981 when I started taking drum lessons. I wasn’t sure why I was learning to swing when the trend was rock, but I soon found myself deconstructing every song into these patterns. This book is written in jazz notation, meaning that it does not include the ride cymbal and hi-hat patterns in every bar. You should be able to play all of these patterns with a swing ride (dotted eight note) and the hit-hat on 2 and four. It sounds easy, but playing straight 8th or 16th notes on the left hand while swinging in triplet time on the right can really be frustrating. Make sure to reverse your hands after you’ve mastered your dominant technique, this breaks the limb dependance. My teacher told me that I should be relaxed enough to be able to play all of these patterns and recite the gettysburg address at the same time. This book unravels rhythm in a way that has been duplicated, but never matched over the years.

Ted Reed – Progressive Steps to Syncopation for the Modern Drummer [Paperback]
Great Book.MANY MANY Professional SESSION drummers have worked out of this book, and teach from it as well.Page 38This page most session guys know by heart. Just take a lesson from one and ask them about it. Theyll play it off of the top of their head.OK – why is this book great?First: It very much gives you Jazz phrasing / rhythms in a nut shell. These rhythmic figures are very Jazz language based / representative. There are MANY ways to use these rhythms – you need a GOOD teacher to show you how. There is so much to apply this to, it just goes on and on.Buy this book and The Drummer’s Complete Vocabulary As Taught by Alan Dawson. Alans book goes into detail on the MANY ways to use Ted Reeds syncopation.Ask any professional Jazz drummer, and theyll say the same (OR MAYBE) they WONT until YOU PAY THEM FOR A PRIVATE LESSON. Well, now you know for free. Go knock yourself out and woodshed. When it pays off thank me for this review.best of luck, have fun with it.

One of the best
I started using this book when I first took lessons about 45 years ago and after 2 years of lessons I got tired of reading and just wanted to play by ear which I have done on and off ever since. About a year or so ago I decided to start learning how to read again and started taking lessons to do so. We use a variety of different books and when I am having trouble playing something I find that I will constantly come back to this book to practice the exercises that pertain to the problems I am having. I probably refer back to this book more than any other book I have and I think it is great for any level of skill or ability that you have. I regret not keeping up on reading like I should have years ago but it’s never too late to continue to learn and I highly recommend this book to anyone just beginning or who has been playing for years. It’s only 8 bucks!

I bought this copy of the book as a gift to a friend who is interested in percussion playing and he is getting great use out of
My first copy of this book dates back to 1978. I’ve been playing drums for 36 years and still find this book helpful. The book contains the basics, but it is incredibly versitile and limited only by your imagination. One can take the patterns and split them up between different limbs. The book can be used as snare drums parts over a jazz feel beat. You can take some of the patterns and play them on the bell of the cymbal while playing a samba beat. You can use the patterns as drum fills at varying speeds, drums and styles. I reccomend this book to both the beginner and expert drum players. I bought this copy of the book as a gift to a friend who is interested in percussion playing and he is getting great use out of the book.

The thing I love about good drumming instructional books is they never go obsolete and are always adaptable to different systems and methods of teaching. For example one can play through the book using Moeller strokes or orchestrate the exercises around the kit to make the manual endlessly helpful.

An essential addition to the drummer’s “biblical” cannon.
Reed’s Syncopation is an endlessly challenging method book. It teaches control of time, feel and dynamics. It is especially useful for drummers who can use the various syncopated figures to play “against” ostinato rhythms.Other musicians can also benefit from the contents of this text. Although percussion notation (e.g. snare drum note heads in the “c”space) is used throughout the book, any player can adapt the figures to their own instrument, e.g. interpreting the rhythms as progressions within a scale or mode.Another aspect of this book is its suitability for all levels of players. Beginners will appreciate its “progressive” difficulty (easy to challenging) and more advanced players will see endless possibilities for rhythmic adventures.Beginners should use this book with a competent teacher, as it is easy to imagine that there is not much going on with each example.Highly recommended.

Yes. This book on syncopation has helped me understand beats and measures.Understanding beats and measures helps with timing. One very importantthing to note is that no book can take the place of a good teacher. Thebook even states this. I am currently taking lessons with a good teacher.The book, teacher, and practice all go together. The book has lessonsand practice sections which the teacher and I go over together.

All music students could benefit from this book.
I am currently using this book to teach my son basic drumming with a roland practice pad. It has been a fantastic help.This book would be helpful to any beginning student learning to read music, not just drummers, since it so clearly breaks down rhythmic notation. The exercise progressions make a lot of sense, and there are quarter note guides that align the drum notes relative to the downbeat, which is very helpful for learning syncopation.

Study for every drummer
I learned about this book through story about Bill Stewart saying that he used this book among others. This study book is really a step by step method to teach your brain syncopation. If one knows the introductory drills you only do the excercises at end of chapter. Great book. Methodical and a road map for teachers!

Great for developing independence, phrasing, and all around drumming skills. Ted Reed did such an intelligent job here; he gave us an incredible learning tool.

The best, not 2nd best …
or maybe I’m being unfair … but I first used Syncopation back when I first took drum lessons (1965 or so) … and I remembered many of the instruction beats to the point where I entered my 4th or 5th childhood at age 52 and bought the book again (and there they were — 1 e & a, etc.). Between this and […] (nate brown, instructor), relearning to read and getting my chops back was a breeze (and nostalgic).If you’re thinking about drumming, you gotta have this … which is rated the 2nd best all-time book behind “stick control” … I never used stick control but will probably take a look-see down the road.

At first I didn’t get it.
At first I didn’t understand how to use this book. Just glancing at the pages, I was like “why would anybody write a book like that? And why would anyone buy it?” Then a friend showed me how to use it – and later I immersed myself in the subculture of YouTube drummers who have developed endless ways to mash up these exercises. No drummer should be without this one.

Excellent book.
I got this for a drum studio class that am taking Arizona State University and so far my reading has been challenged. I personally would recommend this book if you plan to get into big band chart reading and sight reading. There are very helpful written charts that are most commonly seen in big band music and excellent exercises that you can use for left hand comping in swing music. Its a hard book to learn but this is going to jump your reading big time. Take your time with book, don’t rush through it. There are simple steps to take when approaching this book. So have fun and keep swinging. 🙂

Learn This and You Will be Great
The book shows snare and bass drum notes. I practiced those notes while playing the basic jazz swing pattern on the hi-hat and ride and it really helped me increase the independence of each limb. It also significantly improved my left hand control. Buy this book and practice it! You will not be sorry.

Excellent, straightforward book on basic drum rhythms and note emphasis.An excellent book for all levels. Sometimes it’s forgotten that a drummers main purpose is to keep rythm, everything past there is important, but rhythm is its foundation. Reed’s book is perfect to set to a metronome and solidify your internal rhythm in context with a large amount of common drum patterns Ii.e. (eighths, triplets, sixteenths, etc.)Syncopation is an essential book to add to any drummers library. Five stars, highly recommend.

Get syncopated!
The word syncopation is often misunderstood and misused. This book is a great addition to Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone in developing right/ left coordination with accents. Work it work it work it. You’ll be glad you did. I had both these books in my formative years and I revisit them to keep loose and precise. I’m convinced both of these books helped with developing my chops and ability to recognize patterns which made learning songs much faster and easier. Get it, work it!

EVERY SERIOUS MUSICIAN SHOULD HAVE THIS BOOK
Upon receiving this book, it was in mint condition and the packaging was of good quality as well. I bought this book because as a musician, I know you can’t get far without really knowing your scales and theory just like you probably won’t be good at, really, ANY genre without knowing about syncopation. Although the title is directed towards drummers, anyone who plays ANY instrument should invest in this book. It will not only help you as a performer, but also in terms of personal expression and comprehension.

Great skill development for drummers of all levels.
As an advanced beginner on the drum kit this book has helped tremendously in improving the basic coordination between my hands and feet.I started with the book 4-Way Coordination to try to get my limbs to work with each other. 4-Way Coordination is great but, at least for me, hard! Syncopation is more at my level. I work through both and recommend both.

A favorite old wine!
This book deals with syncopation and it starts with the basics to prepare you for the complex. This is a medicine you must take and master to play effectively. To some, some of these exercises may prove very challenging. However, you are determine to succeed because you have no choice. You want to be your best. It is elementary. It is needed to give breath to your performance. Again, a favorite well aged wine!

Great for a new percussionist or seasoned professional
This book and “Stick Control” are the backbone of rudiment books for percussionists. It is no less than essential that this book be used to learn or tune-up one’s understanding of accenting unexpected notes in percussion play. All of my comments in “Stick Control” apply here. Get this book and after you are have completed your first pass through this book there is no way you wont be a better drummer as a result of your work. Isn’t that what it all about.

Very useful and well organized drum exercise book!
It was great to order from amazon, as the order arrived in just days, and the book did not disappoint. It is organized in a progression of lessons which grow incrementally more challenging. Each lesson is perfectly planned to enhance your muscle memory for playing as well as giving you an excllent study in note values and rhythms. I do recommend this book for all beginning drummers (and beyond).

A Classic!
This is one of the most useful books available for studying drums.It is filled with practical rhythms that can be used over and overin different ways. The possibilities are truly endless. These “routines”are not explained in the book, but most drum teachers are (or should be)familiar with the concept. If you own only one drum book, this should bethe one! This book can also be used for rhythmic study on any instrument.

Reminds me of over-xeroxed pages. On p. 54 –59 I had to whiteout the unnecessary ‘3’ over the repeated triplets due to continual confusion with the accent marks. That was a lot of work. Should give it 3 stars but it really is a great book. Wish Alfred would clean up the copy.

Learning to count for guitar
Yes, this book will help you if you have trouble counting in music. I use my left hand tapping on my left knee for the 1,2,3,4 and my right hand doing the more challenging rhythms. Starts off easy and then increases. The cover is a brave and wonderful example of simplicity and don’t change if it’s not broke. Fun

Not Just for Drummers!!!
It’s a shame really that this book is titled “for the modern drummer”.Any musician that plays different rhythmic patterns (which is pretty much all of them) will benefit greatly from this book. All the lines are in 4/4 time with steady quarter notes shown marking the “beat”. So the exercises really consist of all the patterns shown on the top.It’s a simple enough concept, but he had the good sense to write it all out for the rest of us. All your basic patterns: quarter notes, dotted eighths, 16th’s, 16’s mixed with 8’s and all varied in order and with different rests so they come on different beats each time. As you progress through the book, the lines get more complicated and intricate until you get to the syncopated section.I remember this book from when I was a drummer in high school almost 30 years ago. Now I play rhythm guitar, and am looking to get away from the “standard” strumming patterns and get more creative. This book will help me do that. It will also help immensely with learning and playing leads and solos. It really doesn’t matter if you play drums, guitar, sax, keyboard, bass, or mandolin this book will help teach you to recognize and play rhythms – and that is a key part of sight-reading.I guess the TL:DR version would be: If you play a musical instrument, get this book. It will be the some of the best use of money and time you’ll ever spend.

Essential for anyone trying to learn drums
Excellent book for anyone trying to learn drums. Great exercises and ideas that really develop when you can work with a teacher to help flesh out ideas and give you creative patterns to incorporate into your drumming from these exercises. Make sure to google around and get ideas and not to just read the book as is if you are self learning.

Excellent book – interesting rhythms for beginners and intermediate players who read music
I am surprised to see comments about how this book isn’t for beginners. I’m very much a beginner (have only been playing a few months) and have loved it. There are a couple of things in here that are too hard for my current level, but don’t we all want to stretch? It has a decent range from very easy to quite a bit harder and plenty for the beginner. I wouldn’t buy it as a first drum book – but I did in fact buy it as my second. And, it’s great. t love that it challenges me and that there are things I will have to come back to when I become more knowledgeable. Additionally, the rhythms are more interesting and not as straight forward as most books that are appropriate for beginners. That’s a big plus in my book and it makes me want to practice more and longer. I agree that some of the handwritten notes are a little sloppy and inconsistent. This may sound weird, but I find that charming and an additional challenge. And, it adds to the beauty. It’s like the difference between hearing a live drummer and a drum machine.

So good i just had to review it!
If only i had found out about this book sooner! As a drum teacher for the past 12 years, i can easily say Syncopation by Ted Reed is the best most effective book to get beginners started with learning to read rhythms. Some of my students who at first had zero reading ability managed to sight read quarter notes all the way through different 16th note rhythms by the end of class, identifying all the different rests along the way while keeping a steady kick pulse underneath. All this thanks to how systematically the exercises are written out, getting more challenging as you progress through the pages. One step at a time, slowly but surely.Not just for beginner or intermediate drummers; i come back to this book just to brush up on my sight reading every once in awhile, or i’d pick some of the exercises out and use it as double pedal exercises or independence stuff like left foot clave, right/left hand ostinatos etc. A thousand different ways to use this wonderful book!

Use for repetoire, don’t use for learning
I’m a guitar teacher, so my review is biased towards music education. My view of this book is that it has good content – if you can already play some guitar and want to quickly expand your repertoire, this book fits the bill. It has a lot of great and recognizable riffs, and you’re likely to find something in here that you don’t already know and can learn quickly to add to your personal catalog. (Note, many of the “songs” are really just a couple of bars with the main riff, but it’s a good starting point to find songs you’d like to learn.) I use many of these riffs in my lessons. But, and this is a big but, the book leaves a lot to be desired as a “method”. It shows you how to play some things, but addresses virtually none of the why. This stems from – you guessed it – not teaching music, but teaching tabs instead. This leaves the depth of music in this book only surface deep – it’s like learning to read a book out loud, but not understanding what any of the words actually mean.So, I’m going to split the bill and give it 3 stars. If you are an intermediate or better guitar player, you will likely find some useful things in here and can use this book to teach yourself repertoire. But if you are a beginner, do yourself a favor and don’t start here – get yourself a book with an actual music method (I like Hal Leonard’s regular guitar method book) and a good teacher to go through it with. Learning to read music is an invaluable skill to have, and will lend itself to understanding what it is that you’re actually playing.

This book is a lot of fun to go through. I will admit however, it is not a part of my daily practice routine, but more a part of when I want to just get on the guitar and noodle. It has a lot of short riffs to it that are fairly simple, even for a beginner. For the price of the book, I definitely recommend it.

Different from other HL guitar books!
This book takes the beginner approach from their other books and turns it upside down. The “riffs” all start from the lowE string vs starting on the high E. The riffs are easy and mostly well known and fun for the student. The only problem is that they only learn the riffs and not the whole song. The images are all in “tab” orientation and look upside down in the book.

Recensione Hal Leonard Guitar Tab Method Book One
The author takes us by the hand and guides us step by step through the fantastic world of music, in this case specifically centered on the instrument that, more or less, we all have, at least once, tried to play the guitar!Just an excellent job that the author did in preparing this manual. Inside, many tips, explanations and practical explanations on how to get started, well presented even for a neophyte like me. I was afraid in too difficult a reading and that it would discourage me, but the guide is gradual and helps to make progress starting from the basics.There are tips on how to choose the guitar, what it is made of, how to tune it, the posture to use while playing, scales, chords, etc … It also suggests some techniques for playing without a pick, to embellish the songs, to improvise, in short, a small bible to devour !!!!

It comes with a CD containing about 1/3 of the book’s music, so that was a bit of a let-down, but otherwise, I can actually play the viola, so it’s a bit of a miracle worker, along with a lot of practice!
