I dabble on the guitar, but I've been playing the piano my entire life. About 20% of the book is specific to guitar players, but this book is great for ALL musicians. Some theory, lots of mindset, tips for getting unstuck, finding inspiration, and so much more. There's no other book like this available, and you can tell that the writers are building the knowledge from decades of experience. Plus the book is beautifully designed. MY GO-TO GIFT FOR ANY MUSICIAN!!

Great for any instrument, not just guitar. How to plan and get more out of your practice sessions.
