Playing like Eric us impossible for most of we nere mortals and the best instruction for him I ever saw or used was his own videos on ProPath; that just disappeared off line one day......after I had subscribed.What was clear that he doesnt play; say; Cliffs of Dover like 100 per cent of tabs say. Not Trademark. This book perpetuates the myth on Cliffs. In the fourth bar he does not drop down to the seventh fret to play that D on the 3rd string. Nope. He plays it on the 12th fret of the G string and that cluster is then kept up at the octave frets.That makes for a much faster pentatonic run down on the G string to give you the 7th position on the A string for your E pentonic before sliding down to the G on the bottom E. Do that and you will immediately get some pace and thats how Eric said he played it........so perhaps we shouldnt argue with that!Its much more fun too. You climb down the neck as apposed to jump G from the 12 fret to the fifth without any nice flow.So to play like Eric I use this book plus his signature licks and play it like it is; too. Do that and I found a more logical split on say Trademark also.You can play it the way they tab it but its so much harder. Blend all the books and you will have an easier time of it.But this book is great the way it explains technique etc.You perhaps cant have too much information on Erics playing; but be selective in using all of it as gospel.The man himself was incredibly informative in those videos and even he says he has to build up to full speed if he doesnt play the more challenging pieces regularly.But a very useful series of books and Im glad I bought a copy.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Joseph Megnabest eric johnson book yet i have all of them3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. The Definitive EJ Style BookBy Bob McCuneThis is the first book about Eric Johnson that *accurately* details the intricacies of his playing style. The author clearly understands EJs picking mechanics and the other techniques on which his playing is built. I definitely recommend this book!
