To me that was a better introduction and foundation to the system, and then use this book as the second step, as it has some different info and info from the other book presented in new ways.This book also includes a bunch of handwritten charts, which are much more helpful and interesting to understand and analyze after learning the core of the system from the Jim Riley book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2017* Looks like this book is the de-facto standard. I had seen it mentioned in multiple places including a youtube instruction video on the system. It's not a large book but the information is what I was looking for. There are a number of places to get the the basics, but this book goes well past that.I'd consider myself to be an intermediate player and the included songs are challenging to me. So far I've been working on two songs and I can play them pretty well but usually still make a few mental mistakes changing chords. The songs have a number of chord transitions within some measures and working on those has been interesting. Like any instruction book, don't expect to learn the material without doing some work. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Music by the numbers *by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2011* I bought this book because I wanted to find out what the Nashville number system was all about and how it differed from the numbers that jazz musicians commonly refer to--usually in Roman numerals. Not much difference, really. I once saw a jazz pianist coach his bassist through a live performance of an old jazz standard that the young bassist didn't know by simply flashing fingers at each chord change--and there were more than just three chords in that tune. When a jazz musician says "IV chord," he's saying exactly what a Nashville player says when he says "4 chord." It's just that they got there by different routes.I found this book fascinating, particularly as to the lengths to which Nashville-using musicians have each gone to flesh out the Nashville number system. It's a bit funny, though, because it ends up being almost as complicated as learning standard music notation, if you go the whole way. They just use different symbols for the same things--like a diamond for whole note, for example. I'm not at all sure that it really wouldn't be just as easy to become good at reading standard music notation as reading Nashville. But this book is a fascinating and fun read, particularly the various and varied actual handwritten pages of Nashville notation made by experienced musicians. --- ## 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.pl/products/14459299-the-nashville-number-system](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/14459299-the-nashville-number-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
