Guns n' Roses: Appetite for Destruction (Bass Guitar) Reviews:
Good Transcriptions Of The Classic GNR Album! 
2009-11-11 - Few guitar tab books are as accurately transcribed as this one is which is a testament to the skills of transcriber Jesse Gress. We also get an intro essay by the godfather of transcription Wolf Marshall as well as performance notes on each track by the transcriber Gress himself which is infinitely helpful for learners like me. To play most of the material here though you'd need a wah pedal and to tune your axe down a half-step to E flat to play along with the cd
Another plus of the book is the binding which doesn't come apart easily when you press down on the pages to make them stay while you play. The big negative however is the font size which is small and so makes it a little harder to read and play along. It they could have increased the font size, this book would have gotten 5 stars from me.
Still this is a useful guitar tab book and it will certainly bring you closer to sounding like Slash than if you didn't open it at all and give it a try.
The Bass Bible

This truely is a great bass tab book for a great album! Beginners to experienced players could do alot worse than learn from the basslines Duff McKagan plays on Appetite!
Buy this book!
Great tab book
2005-02-25 - All the songs from Appetite for Destruction, with detailed transcriptions, song notes and an introduction at the face of the book, lyrics, and more! I also bought THE STYLES AND TECHNIQUES OF SLASH, which was a breakdown of some of the songs from Appetite with a bonus CD. Both are recommendable but this is definitely more straightforward. If you want to learn Gn'R, start there. If you're already good at guitar, get this book. It's hard, and takes practice, but the songs are ALL great. Even Think About You is fun to play, and it's my least favorite song on Appetite.
Appetite for Destruction
2004-11-19 - In Appetite for Destruction, Gene writes about how guns and roses emerged from an LA club that legends Van Halen, Motely Cure and poison, also emerged from. Gene gives an excellent point of view of how hard they had it when they first started. He continues to write about how even know they had numerous albums and concerts, the luck for the band, just kept on getting worse. From someone's head getting stumped in ar a mush pit at one of their concerts, to alcohol and drug overdoses.
It talks of how slash tried to over came his drug problems and how Axel had a huge control issue over the band. This band was created of friendship and ruined by greed, corruption, drugs and alcohol. It even tells you secrets of songs and stories of them. I would give it 5 stars.
