It's not a direct link, you'll need to download it as a torrent.

Best wishes,

I was unable to find any link for the pdf on the zappateers site but 
I recall the cover was done by Cal Schenkle.
I could'a sworn there actually was a Vol.2, but I will defer to you 
sir.

There's only one of those, despite the "Vol. 1" in the title. 
It can be found on Zappateers in PDF-format:
http://www.zappateers.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=3231

The one with transcriptions by Steve Vai is The Frank Zappa Guitarbook from
1982:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Frank_Zappa_Guitar_Book 

Both titles are getting harder to find, but I was lucky enough to score (pun
intended) a copy of the Guitarbook at a record fair earlier this year.

Well, since you asked... ;c)
 
This is just what I recall from reading various things but there were one or 
two of these books of transcriptions in the 70s that I believe were produced 
with input from FZ, esp. as evidenced in some of the amusing annotations (like 
the "Little Deuce Coup" / "she's a dirty young mind, corrupted corroded" 
section of "Brown Shoes" annotated tempo de Beach Boys).
 
I would bet afka.net would have something about them, they have a pretty good 
listing of books by and about FZ and a huge collection of print interviews.

  Frank released(I think)two soft cover "song books" in the '70s.
  They were not nearly as detailed as The Beatles scores, but I'd love 
  to still have them now.
