Learn from Legendary Guitarist Ed Gerhard with his Acoustic Masterclass: The Guitar Songbook, Book & CD

Doner Kebab: As a big fan of Ed’s playing, this book is a gift. Each tune is presented with both music & tab, so you have all the tools you need. If you don’t know the tunes so well you can find these tunes online & watch Ed playing them. Not a book for beginners though.

Amazon Customer: Ed Gerhards tabular music book is great for getting started to play some of his compositions. It is easily understood with the guitar tabs as well as the music notes presented in parallel with each other in the book. The audio cd with playing tips are helpful, but I would have preferred it to be video clips presenting these techniques for the user to visually see what Ed do could help a guitar player extensively more than a audio clip. In general I would like to see more books like this from Ed Gerhard, one doesn't only learn hoe to play his compositions but you also practice fingerstyle techniques which improves you overall as a guitar player.

bugalug: This item is just what I expected, great melodies and a challenge to tackle....no it is not easy but that would be boring if it was.

jodi picarelli: This book has been transcribed to perfection, trying to capture as much as possible of Ed's style. I was able to follow along with Ed's recording, helping to clear up the wall of sound he creates with one guitar. Of course with most charts it is almost impossible to write out all of Ed's inflections, but the main text is solid.The tunings are right on the mark and the pieces written for the Weissenborn really defines the beauty of the instrument.
The reader/musician can't go wrong with this purchase, I highly endorse this songbook.

Plumhunter: Nice arrangements of some great songs. "The River is Wide" is one of my favorites and Ed makes an easy arrangement of it to play from. The cd is not so useful. I listened to it once and that was about it. But the book is well worth the cash.

Sa Cothran: Gerhard plays in many different tunes, if you think about it usually it's just a few strings you have to change. Any experienced guitarist that has heard many Gerhard tunes would know he's not in standard sometimes. I found the tabs to be quite accurate, which saved me lots of time trying to figure out what he was doing just by listening, even with it slowed down. I didn't care if it even came with a cd, but it is a nice extra. And please...before you post you playing one of his songs on Youtube, get an unbiased opinion of your playing by someone not afraid to hurt your feelings. Gerhard's music has a touch few can match and I just hate seeing his songs trashed.
