As a guide, calling it "definitive" is a stretch. The topics are not approached systematically, with the book jumping from how to string a guitar, to how to fret one, and back to considerations when buying one. The book is not visually attractive, with smallish B/W photos making up most of the illustrations, and diagrams from Seymour Duncan and others used to round it out.The book reflects poor decision-making about what not to include, as well. For example, there is a needless chart of the colors various manufacturers use for their pickups and many pages of Fender wiring diagrams which are easily found on the Internet. Detailed photoraphs of the actual wiring would be of far greater use to the novice. To wit, instructions on soldering are left until the very end of all preceding sections on electronics, including theory on the polarity of pickups.I can't recommend this book for either a beginner or an intermediate. It doesn't contain enough material to qualify as a reference or a sourcebook, and isn't developmental enough to coax the novice into this rewarding aspect of guitarism. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Not organised well *by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2015* Yeah it's a good book...but just a couple of things...the main problem with the book is that there is no dedicated acoustic guitar section. The acoustic info and the electric info is all mixed up together. If we are seeking guidance on setup and maintenance then we need very carefully assembled and methodical instruction. We don't want half a paragraph on bone saddles immediately followed by a few lines about tremolos and then another couple of lines about how it's crucial to sand an acoustic bone saddle carefully. This book jumps around and doesn't provide a clear methodical focus. If I am reading about electric guitar I just want to read about electric. If I am reading about acoustics...I just want to read about acoustics.While there is lots of info in here it doesn't answer those grey area questions such as on an acoustic after you set the action and neck you get to the intonation...you find that you have to sand some of the saddle to lengthen or shorten the string...if you have to sand some of the saddle profile away this means that you are lowering the action a bit. What to do about that?If anyone knows a dedicated acoustic guitar setup book, by the way, let me know. Lots of books out there jump around all over the place like this book and or do not provide the highly detailed methodical approach you need in setting up acoustics. This book even says that a straight neck is what you want...when this is not true...some people play with a slight bow. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Book - Must Have For Guitar Owners *by $***T on Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2017* This is an excellent book for anybody who owns an electric or acoustic guitar and wants it to play it's best. Most guitars aren't properly setup when you buy them, and a proper setup makes a tremendous impact on the playability and sound of your instrument. Even if you prefer to pay somebody else to setup your guitars it's worthwhile to understand the mechanics behind the instrument so you can better evaluate the condition of your guitars or guitars that you are considering buying.This John Evans does an excellent job of presenting the material in a way that is easy to read and understand without sacrificing the level of detail necessary become proficient. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/111330432-guitar-setup-maintenance-and-repair-kindle-edition](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/111330432-guitar-setup-maintenance-and-repair-kindle-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
