This post is just for idiots like me who:
1. Would buy a Prima Guide in the first place.
2. Would pick up a book the size of a paper back and expect it to have legible font size.
The guide Wal-Mart has is tiny and the printing is so small, I'd expect this book was made for insects to read. Don't bother with this edition unless you want to go completely blind. I will now have to march to Wal-Mart and stage a hissy fit in order to get a refund, because they do not like to refund books.
As you've taken the plunge on loser street, any chance you could have a look at the guitar challenges section and tell me what it says about the playing at 10 parties/venues? I can't clear it and it's pissing me off.

fend off Jehovah's Witnesses in hand to hand combat.
If it causes them to burst into flames on contact, it might actually be worth buying!

Accuracy aside, the tiny print issue may be caused by age and denial.
The same bastards that print the Prima Guide now seem to be printing my newspaper.

Why wouldn't you flip through the book first? I always flip through books to make sure there aren't any obvious printing errors, like blank pages. If you'd taken two seconds to crack open the book before cracking open your wallet, perhaps you wouldn't have this issue.
I'm fairly sure that my Walmart had the guide sealed in plastic.
And you still bought it? If you hadn't would it still be eating away at you ("What's inside that plastic? What are they hiding?")?
No, I didn't buy it. The comletionist in me wanted to, but I thought prima guides were coffee table book sized with lots of pictures. If I find a decent sized one I might buy it.

This is all it says "Guitar Star - Guitar Stars must play at 10 parties and venues in the town to earn their title. Afterward, they earn even more money for tips and performances."
In other words, sorry it's no help. I've wondered about that myself, and haven't found an answer.
