It should be noted up front that some songs are not surf and, unfortunately, Surf Guitar doesn't include Pipeline. However, that doesn't mean Surf Guitar isn't worth considering for your collection.

The book is filled with 30 outstanding classics and some great, hard-to-find transcriptions, including Balboa Blue, Penetration and Surfer's Stomp.

All of the transcriptions are accurate and excellent. Each song has notation, tablature, chord symbols and, where applicable, lyrics. Surf Guitar includes playing tips and information about reading tab. It also has a "Souvenir Photo Section" with shots of various bands and artists.

If a mixture of surf and golden oldies is what you're after, you'll enjoy Surf Guitar by Creative Concepts Publishing Corp.
