Book reviews: ""Dwayne's books are well written and easy to follow. I would definitely recommend his books to anyone wanting to learn guitar. You can easily find them on Amazon."" Betty. ""The book Learn To Play Acoustic Guitar is a sure path to learning how to play an acoustic guitar! It will provide a pleasant learning experience by covering everything a beginner needs to know. The book is straightforward, and it is really nice to be able to practice as you read through the lessons, not just read. There are plenty of examples and diagrams to help the reader understand how to play. I also really appreciated that you're recommending specific types or brands of equipment, like guitar picks or a tuner. Lastly, I'd like to acknowledge that you're also provided access for personal help; after all, nothing beats an actual teacher! All in all, this is an excellent book to get you started on playing acoustic guitar."" Michelle. ""Dwayne's book on How to Play Guitar Modes is a great guide on playing modes. It is well written and easy to understand. Designed in such a way that it doesn't shoot over your head. Great job!"" Marc.
