No Bull Music Theory for Guitarists

Master the Essential Knowledge all Guitarists Need to Know

By: James Shipway

Narrated by: James Shipway

No Bull Music Theory for Guitarists is the groundbreaking guitar theory book for guitar players. Now, guitarists of all levels can understand most of the music theory they'll ever need, without the confusion. Easy-to-understand language, explanations, and practical examples mean you can understand in hours music theory concepts that can confuse guitar players for years. No music reading or theory knowledge required!

In the audio, you hear all examples demonstrated (plus extra "audiobook only" demos by the author). Twelve bite-sized chapters teach you the following topics and show you how to use them in your playing, improvising, and song writing:

• The Musical Alphabet - the 12 notes used in music
• Tones and Semitones
• The Major Scale - what it is and why you need it
• Major and Minor Triads (used in most pop, country, rock, and folk music)
• Intervals (major scale and chromatic)
• Major Keys (the secret to writing great songs and solos)
• Chord Progressions (start writing pro sounding chord sequences/songs)
• Pentatonic Scales (most common guitar scales ever)
• The Natural Minor Scale (for minor key soloing)
• Minor Key Basics - understand minor key songs and chord sequences

Perfect for learning guitar music theory at beginner/intermediate level, boosting knowledge to improve playing/songwriting, understanding other musicians use, and learning to write better songs.

I wrote this as the antidote to the confusing, poorly explained music theory books guitarists (including me) have had to struggle with until now, so grab your guitar and nail 99 percent of the music theory you need, with No Bull Music Theory for Guitarists!

A Very good product

Buy this. you will not find a better audiovisual about this subject. Kudos to the author.

life changing

Why has no one ever explained music theory to me this way before! Love it. This book is making a huge difference for me.

Great for beginners

This audiobook has been extremely useful for me to understand music theory and how it relates to the guitar. I've listened to it several times during my commute and exercise. I review the PDF after my exercise to make sure my visualizations match up with the material being taught. I get a little lost in the second half but it's becoming more clear with each relisten. Highly recommend to add this to your queue to listen on the go.

Great lessons

Great music theory for the guitarist! Downloadable hope is essential. Learned a lot and will continue to learn.

Ties audio seamlessly with the book

It makes all the difference being able to hear the chords right alongside the narrative. He really delivers on breaking it down. I’m just getting my calluses back after 50 years, and this gives me a firm foundation as I jump back in! Well worth the time investment!
