Song Choices

Hi. I’m learning Walk Of Life from the instruction video but notice it’s not in the song book. I’ve checked the website and the app. Am I missing something?

It’s in my copy of Beginners Song Book (Vol1) 2nd Edition

Do you have to pay extra for the Beginners Songbook? Is it online?

It’s a separate product. I bought it about 10 years ago. Not sure if it’s still in publication. You will probably find getting the Justinguitar Tabs subscription is better value for money. They need to charge a fee for it due to copyright restrictions.

There were a couple of them, physical spiral-bound books. I have both of them. Like @chris_m said, I don’t know if they’re still available in Justin’s store.

Hi Barry,

There are two Beginners songbooks, both available in Justin’s store. I’m (still) a Grade 3 beginner, and have both beginner books. I find them very useful - they usually include strumming patterns, and lots of tips for playing. They supplement the lessons on the website well. I also have a Tabs subscription. I rarely use it to learn songs, I use it more as a reference. Most of the tabs are far beyond my abilities.

I bought a half-dozen of the songbooks about 5 years ago when I re-engaged with guitar, my intent being to support both Justin’s magnificent efforts and my goal of learning songs. I’m pretty sure I did better on the first of those than the second (need to work on that). The books are great but I do find some of the beginner songs a bit unsatisfying when they’re vastly simplified versions of the original. YMMV. As @judi said, the books are still available for purchase.

Thank you all for the advice!
