Here's What JustinGuitar Says About the Beginner's Songbook Volume 2

An equal, not a sequel! This follow-up to the bestselling Justinguitar Beginner's Songbook (over 100,000 copies sold worldwide!) features 100 more songs which are perfect for beginner guitarists to play. Like Volume 1, the songs sync perfectly with the Justinguitar Beginner's Course - 10 songs for each of the nine stages of the course, plus 10 bonus songs. The songs start out just using three easy chords and then progress through to using F, Power Chords, Sus Chords and Slash Chords. 

The songlist includes classics by U2, Ed Sheeran, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Johnny Cash, Sam Smith, Daft Punk, Metallica, R.E.M., Foo Fighters and David Bowie, so there’s something for everyone. 

All the songs feature full lyrics and chords, with a written lesson and playing tips. Chord boxes, strumming/fingerpicking patterns and small sections of TAB are used as necessary to show specific detail.

Many of the songs in the book are supported by a free-to-access video tutorials on JustinGuitar.com, so there’s everything you need to learn the songs and develop your playing.

Just like its predecessor, this is a perfect collection for beginner guitarists to keep you inspired, and help you progress and play better, while learning some awesome songs.
