I bought it before I found this site and the book taught me a little bit. It is a cheap set that contains the basic picks which is good if you don't want to spend a lot of money. If I were you I would buy a small set of slim lines or a set without the book instead. You don't really need the book in my opinion because this site teaches you MUCH more than the book. Hope that helped your decision. :D
