When you buy a book, you're tapping into what makes that particular author tick and their years of experience, all without having to go through the hassle of "maybe" being able to talk to that person and ask them questions in person. The value of books is really apparent when it comes to learning guitar.

Like any other subject though, it pays to know what books are great to begin with, so you learn the best stuff first. I've collected a list of some of my favorite guitar books, from beginner to advanced. These books focus on not only making you a better guitar player, but a better musician overall.

The last time we talked about guitar books, I gave you some great recommendations that work whether you’re a beginner or a more advanced guitar player.

Today I’m back with 6 more recommendations for books that are sure to help you along your journey in becoming a great guitarist.

Books are one of the best values out there, because they contain lifetimes of knowledge for about 20-30 bucks. 

It is crucial to warm your hands up before you play a show or get into your full practice routine (this can be on your own, or during a guitar lesson). I liken it to a runner stretching before they go out, so they don't get hurt.

Doing these warm up exercises gets your hands ready for the rest of the awesomeness that you're about to get into.
