Straight Up Accurate and Complete Tabs; But....By GrayzerIf you need or want to learn the bass for these SRV songs; then this is the bass book for you. Its accurate and complete; its got bass tabs. However; if you are interested in learning something about Tommy Shannon; SRVs bassist; then this is not the book you want. Shannon appears on the cover; and theres a one mention of him in the book; his name appears once on a bio page--about SRV. The book has no info or discussion of Shannon and his style. Im a big fan of SRV--and I know some might consider this blasphemy--but I got this book because Im also a fan of Shannon.Im also a fan of bass books. However; I dont buy the books just to learn the bass line for songs. I can usually do that on my own; and; if not; there are a lot of online resources to help out. So basically I buy these books for the added value of information and discussion; of which none appears here. For what it does offers; this book does an excellent job. It nails it. Its accurate and complete. Its what it doesnt offer that earns the 3 stars.8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Excellent Bass Tab for SRVBy A CustomerI am a bass player in a pick up band and we cover a bunch of SRV songs. This book was very helpful for me because it takes a long time to figure out the tab by myself and I learn a lot from the SRV bass lines because they are very melodic and dont really repeat themselves too often. If you are in a band that plays SRV this is highly recommended. Or if you are interested in rock bass lines; following SRV songs will be a help unless you are already a pro. The tab seems very faithful to the music I play along and rarely notice a difference (I certainly couldnt do it nearly as well).
