All of rock schools graded books are excellent I started playing guitar and bought debut book from rockstar mastered this book and moved on to grade 1 and so on and so on now I am on grade 5 without any lessons from instructor I’m not a perfect guitarist by any means but each book seems to have lessons on techniques built into the pieces which help you progress in quite a structured way awesome books for anybody interested in learning music they also contain scales chords and arpeggios which you must not skip past Otherwise you will miss valuable lessons five stars excellent
