Customers say
Customers find the chord book helpful for learning piano, with one mentioning it serves as a great guide for beginners. Moreover, the book features 480 chords and is easy to use, with one customer noting its clear diagrams. Additionally, the spiral binding and value for money receive positive feedback. However, the book’s physical condition receives mixed reviews, with several customers reporting torn pages, and the pronunciation aspect also gets mixed reactions.

Great piano chord book
I ordered this little piano book at the request of my music teacher. Honestly, I don’t know what it all means yet, but it’s a nice size book and has all the cords in it. My son that is a music major in college was really excited to get a copy as well, and said that it had everything in it that he needed. So I guess that is a win! Highly recommend.

Front page damaged / Useful resource
This was not shipped in a box. It was shipped in a bag. Because of this, the book arrived with the front cover bent and torn near the bottom and the first handful of pages are similarly bent, as if the entre book were grasped and folded inward a bit. The contents of the book itself are great, it has some basic piano tips and info near the start such as hand placement and the difference between major and minor chords. I do wish they chose a different color scheme to go with when coloring the piano keys in each chord description. They use a light blue for the left hand, which shows up just fine. But they opt for a dark purple to highlight piano keys for the right hand. This blends in FAR too much with the black keys and it’s difficult to see unless your room is very well illuminated. I feel like red or orange would’ve been better choices to pair with blue.

You won’t regret buying this book!
The spiral binding makes it super easy to flip through and find the chord you need quickly. The diagrams are clear and easy to read, and the book covers a huge variety of chords. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to expand their chord vocabulary.

Hard to navigate, not easy to read.
There are only two chords on each page so you have to search al lot of pages to find one chord, and when you’re trying to find an augmented.or diminished chord.Also, the picture of each keyboard has the smae chord twice, in 2 different colors, signifying LEFT HAND from RIGHT HAND… completely superfluous, and it ads to the difficulty in deciphering the finger placement. I gave it a 3 because the price is good if you have a tight budget, or if you just need it for a short time, or just a quick reference book.

The book’s matter is nice and satisfying but the cover of this book is scratched and torn. Looks like it’s already used by someone.

Excelente libro de acordes. Su tamaño es ideal, la pasta dura, el papel de las hojas garantiza su duración por largo tiempo. Los colores usados para ambas manos es muy visual y ayuda al aprendizaje de los acordes. Ampliamente recomendado.
