I'm currently in a room playing surf rock tunes with Mr. Al Bonhamme.Every time I'm in one of his classes I always have something to take away. Not just for country but much respect to this. It's great for getting those chops up.Once I finish it I'll update this but for the meantime buy this freakin book

I was in the same surf/spy (Twang) guitar class as the previous reviewer. I have also had Al Bonhomme for Guitar Technique during my time at the Musician's Institute, as well as Private Instruction, and he is a very good teacher. Al has a way of explaining things is easy to understand, every day language, and he has a million tips and tricks. The Surf/Spy Guitar class was great, and a lot of fun, but Al is known here at MI as the quintessential Country Guitar player/teacher. I am hoping to take his Country Guitar elective in the future, but until then, I will do he next best thing and study this book, cover to cover.
