I got Dan's beloved book on guitar setups and have had it for over a year. I teach and love to read. I bought the book because fine tuning instruments isn't something I'm naturally good at; so I searched the 'net for advice on a good book to read to help me with my guitar setups. The DVD with the new Guitar Player Repair Guide includes printable repair forms. Download (PDF, 364k). Dan Erlewine's Guitar Repair Services. Dellorto DCOE, DCO/SP & DHLA Carburettors 3rd Edition (Speedpro Series)Dell. Guitar Player Repair Guide Discussion in 'Tech-Talk' started by Giant, Mar 22, 2009. Thus, I came across copious online commentary supporting Erlewine's book about guitar setups and repairs. Fast forward to a year later -- do I like the book? Sure, it's a fine book that's well written. My issue is the target audience though. Is the book really appropriate for novices interested in the foundational methods of simple guitar setups? I would assume that most people buying Erlewine's book (for learning guitar setups) would have guitars that are in good condition, but that are in need of setups. Do I consider Dan's book to really be the Bible of guitar setups though? For novices and beginners who don't know how to setup guitars, the book is organized poorly (again, for the novice of beginner that's just trying to get their guitar setup properly). I honestly didn't enjoy reading and sifting through all the different methods of guitar repair just to get to 'how to approach guitar setups.' I feel like the book is honestly a bit too unorganized and too advanced to serve any novice that is interested in learning the art of the guitar setup. By the way -- I get that I'm going to get flack for this commentary considering the amount of love people have for Dan's book, but this review is as honest as I could be. ![]() Is the book horrible? No, it is a great book actually.-- if I was already good at doing guitar setups. Is it helpful and concrete for the beginner or novice? IMHO it isn't. I would've preferred a book that was more black and white (do this, not that) and with less gray area (some like this, some don't, etc) when discussing guitar setups. I would like to know how to do a good average setup FIRST and FOREMOST, before worrying about the different philosophies of bridge height, fret leveling, shimming a nut, etc. Like with anything in life, some things that we learn just require the aid of a teacher me thinks. The book is too advanced and too 'all over the place' for my tastes. I need a teacher -- some time watching them make the adjustments -- then time to try a setup on my own -- before I can even worry about subject matter such as 'how to check out a used guitar' or 'how to level a fretboard.' Grhino I don't see why you should catch any flack on your review as it was honest and pretty much spot on. I had bought that book about 4 years ago and it is indeed aimed at those who are already somewhat ad-versed in doing guitar repairs and I deffinetly would not recomend it for a total novice who never did a set up before. I even found the DVD it came with way too bland compared to the contents of the book. He should of at least walked buyers through a whole basic set-up instead of focusing on a briefing on intonation and changing your strings. So I found the material in the book very advanced and the DVD way too basic. Dan Erlewine has two books. The Guitar Player Repair guide is pretty thorough and way too in depth in some things most people will never do. It's a good book for the next level repair guy. How To Make Your Electric Guitar Play Great is for novices/beginners. It's better organized and most of the info is filtered for that audience. Maybe you bought the more in depth one, so check out the other. Either way, despite the disorganization of the bigger book to some, it is light years ahead of readability, organization, and information than just about any other book out there. I have numerous books on repair and building and most just suck. They are very philosophical, esoteric, and written like graduate dissertations. Dan's book is by far the best, in my opinion, but you gotta get the right one for your target. Check out the other one and you will probably like it better. As a luthier, I come down on the side of Dan Erlewine on this issue. The Guitar Player Repair Guide was THE book we were all waiting for and finally got. It was a totally comprehensive, all-inclusive encyclopedia of everything that you needed to know to build or repair guitars. Dan was/is the guy to ask. Before that book you had to do all your own compiling of information from various sources, some of which may have been correct, some not. For someone like myself who dove in and got their hands dirty taking apart guitars with only a little knowledge cobbled together from different local repair techs, it was a Godsend that provided final-word clarification on proper procedure, technique and tools.
