I have been looking around online to try and find maybe a book or a video to help me with effects but some are over the top for me. I did catch Hal Leonard Guitar Effects Pedals - The Practical Handbook and thought maybe this would be one that kind of "dumbs it down", has anyone read it?

drix2 stranger Registered: 08/04/09 Posts: 5	fgurl, Virtual Music Corporation has a good software lesson called Play Guitar My son uses it and says it is great because it starts out for a beginner and grows with you. This link is to a review that top 40 Magazine did in the reviews section. We looked at some of the free lessons on line and they were not very good. This one is around 35 bucks you should check it out. http://www.musicgearreview.com/reviews.p...d=Play%20Guitar
