It is not like other Dobro books, it's better!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
OK! I know that a lot of people like everything to be laid out so that they can just follow the dots and call themselves players. No. They are dot followers. The CD (record) does not follow the dots for you. Did you ever wonder why your mother doesn't hold your hand when you walk now that your older? Stacy Philips doesn't hold you hand here, instead he walks away and lets you stumble a little. He lets you look a little harder at the book and listen a little harder to the CD. He is not interested in teaching you his style as much as he wants you to learn to play.....without the book or CD. I give this book a very high recomendation. I am very new to the Dobro and after using this book for two weeks I was playing along with my friends. Don't be fooled by slick production that keeps holding your hand. The dobro is about fun and with this book you will learn how. The section on tunings is worth the price of the book alone. I bought my first books and DVD's months ago and I didn't really know how to play until I started this two weeks ago. Buy it and work with it and you will see what I mean.
isn't the dobro fun?

it just sounds great, so fat and plump. and it sounds even better on the lap, which is how this book teaches it. no upright style here, but if you're interested there's an appendix on how to turn your normal guitar into one. endless styles explored: bluegrass, blues, old-time, hawaiian, western swing, modern country. not to mention bits on history, more tunings, and other useful miscellany. it's just a good ol' time and a great place to start.
