Does anyone have the book "dave matthews for easy guitar"

[davesahottie]

Wondering if anyone has this book and if so is it worth buying? I'm having a hard time playing from just tabs and need more info on how to strum. I'm a beginner with no musical background. I have the book "learn guitar with the dave matthews band" but it only has various parts of songs (no full songs) If someone has it can you scan in "crush" and email it to me?
Thanks,
Leah

I can't say whether the book is worth it or not, but have you watched any of the corresponding (or youtube) videos for the tabs? They help tremendously, imo.

Thanks for the advice, and yes I have tried you tube videos. They do help me some but I get frustrated with them b/c they all play from a different set of tabs (some with their own variations) and I have a really hard time following them even when I try to write down their version of the tab. I wish they would post their tab with the video but no one seems to do that. I try listening to the song over and over again but just can't get the rhythm down. I think I will just order the book and if that doesn't help I can try to find a guitar teacher that doesn't mind teaching me how to play Dave songs.

this should get you started.

you can find some other intructional videos stickied in this forum
(like this one... http://www.dmbtabs.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=21047 )

These videos correspond with the tabs here on dmbtabs because they are played and tabbed EXACTLY the way Dave plays them.

Wait, this is a Dave Matthews forum still?
