BARGAIN!!!
I got this book having felt dissatisfied with the teaching of scales in 'Rock guitar for dummies', and wasn't expecting much for the price, but this book covers a wide range of the more common scales and also quite a few modes, and more importantly explains them quite well too. All in all for the price, this is an excellent reference book, my only gripe is that the scale patterns aren't illustrated all along the neck (they are only shown in 1 or 2 adjacent positions), but what do you expect for under 3 quid??

Scale King
I put this in my basket so that i would qualify for free shippin, i didnt expect much but it is a fantastic book, it doesnt just show scales it teaches you to understand them, every guitarist should buy this book

For the Money Excellent
Ive been playing about 25years - I know nearly all the stuff in hear - but as the guy before - I bought it to make up the amount for free postage. It really is all you need in a book and the last few pages gave me a few ideas: modes and the relative minors and parrellel modes. dont worry if you dont know the modes - do you know the minor and major pentatonics in five positions ? If not this is a good reference book for them - though its not a walk through course - more a summary page on each scale. For the money - if nothing else it gives the intermediate player a road map.
