Book Reviews of Metallica: Master of Puppets (Guitar / Vocal with Tablature)
Book Review: Number Tabs for Lead and Rhythm Guitar
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very fun Metallica album to learn, as there are some fantastic songs. And this book, as usual from Cherry Lane publishing, gives you all parts of both the lead and rhythm guitars, for every song on the album. There are both musical notations and number tabs available for every song, which is nice for both those able to read music, and those (like me) who are not and just want to see a number. Certain rhythm parts may not have a number tab, and just a note (i.e. G, A, etc), but if that is the case, the beginning of the song has a key that says A= 5-7 on bottom two strings.
This book is worth it, just to get the last song Damage inc. down as it is a very fun song to learn. You also have the Metallica favorites like Puppets and Sanitarium, that are must knows for anyone wanting to be able to play Metallica. You won't be disappointed by this book as it is a close second to Kill em all, for fun metallica songs to play.
Book Review: Yet Another Review...
Summary: 5 Stars
The Master tab book is definitely a must-buy for not only the avid Metallica muso-fan, but for those wishing to upskill themselves in various guitar techniques. As mentioned elsewhere, take all tabs with a grain of salt, however, the solos are a near-enough note-by-note transcription and each riff is intricately tabbed to include even the most subtle of variations.
Includes a very well-written introduction, outlining some very important and helpful tips to assist you in your mastery of one of Metllica's finest albums.
In a one-line verdict: A definite must-have, even as a collector's item!
Book Review: Solid transcriptions
Summary: 5 Stars
The Master of Puppets songbook from Cherrylane is actually pretty good as far as these items go. It's fairly accurate, even for some of the more complex sections. However, The Thing That Should Not Be is notated in drop D-tuning, when the whole guitar is actually tuned down to D -- but the actual notes appear correct despite this error. I like the fact that some of bassist Cliff Burton's leads (Orion and the intro to Damage Inc.) were incuded as well. You can nit-pick about some the positons in the tabulature, but as long as the notes are right, who cares?Book Review: AWESOME BOOK!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the most accurate book on the tabs for these songs that i have found so far... i cant really think of any bad things to put down on this product so if ur into tabs and metallica then get this book. But be sure to get the more expensive one. the cheaper one doesnt have the feature with the cut in holes and binded up spine so that it may just open and stay there without u having to push the page out or put something on it to stop the page from turning. its quite annoying when ur trying to play the tabs and the page keeps turning.Book Review: Tabs are a bit off
Summary: 3 Stars
Lets get one thing straight: I love metallica!
But, this book has one mayor error:
some of the written tabs are incorrect, not in notes but in sound.
..Just sit down with this book and practice then you will figure out a lot more better and faster ways to play a certain lick etc. It is 75% correct. Otherwise a good book with nice pictures.
