Beginning Fingerstyle Guitar (Book & Cd) (Complete Fingerstyle Guitar Method)

Perhaps the best book on the subject ever...
I've experimented with both classical and flamenco guitar over the years, but when I discovered this series of books 1 - 3 on contemporary-fingerstyle guitar, I knew that I'd finally found my niche. The notation and tab are first-rate with helpful fingering notation for the beginner. There's plenty of theory and a wealth of techniques, tips and tricks to make sure that the would-be guitarist ...

Fingerstyle guitar
Ken Perlman packs a gig bag-full of fingerstyle guitar into this book. While it definitely targets novice fingerstyle players, it is not a book for those just beginning to play the guitar. Although Perlman introduces tablature, he assumes the player can read standard notation and already has a good knowledge of the fingerboard. Also, because much of fingerstyle is based on movable chord ...

This beginner loves it
I may be in the running for the world's lowest quotient of native guitar playing talent. I took lessons for a couple of years and practiced regularly and was always frustrated. I pretty much gave up for the last 5 years. Then about 6 months ago I bought Beginning Fingerstyle Blues Guitar and am now enjoying the guitar the way I origionaly thought I would. I still have a screwy connection between ...
The Very Best of Fingerstyle Guitar: 25 Songs Arranged for Solo Guitar in Standard Notation and Tablature

The Very Best
I really enjoy playing the arrangements in this book. The arrangements are in the intermediate to advanced levels. You have to move your fingers up and down the fretboard. I love the arrangement for Romance; fairly easy to play but sounds so beautiful. This book is worthy of purchase and will give you lots of playing time. Whoever arranged these pieces did an excellent job!!

Best Lesson Book I have ever purchased
Many of the other reviews have said it first, but Mark Hanson has created an excellent series of finger picking lesson books. The Art of Solo Fingerpicking is an intermediate fingerpicking book. If you can only strum a few chords or are new to fingertyle, start off with Mark's The Art of Contemporary Travis Style Picking first and then come back to this one. The exercises (in both books) ...

I would have given it 10 stars
I am a very lazy person so for me to write a review is saying a lot about a book. I would not be writing this unless I did not think that this book was great. "Advanced Fingerstyle Guitar" is a book for the ages...it has everything that a fingerstyle guitarist could want. This book is not for the total beginner. If you are an intermediate player this book should be challenging but not too bad ...

Excellent book and excellent customer service from provider
I bought this book for my son-in-law who married my daughter, a Hawaiian native. He loves it and has already begun to work through its pages. This, and the other books on Ukelele theory and practice are working out great for him. I am very glad I read his Amazon wish list and purchased this and other books for him by this author.

from a guitarist
Concepts is a must have for anyone interested in finally peeking "behind the curtain" to learn about solo guitar. Classical guitarists, jazz guitarists, rock and country players can finally learn what everyone wants to know how to do. The arrangements of tunes in this book are excellent exercises to demonstrate concepts like walking bass, chord substitution, reharmonization, and more. But also, ...
Jazz Standards for Fingerstyle Guitar

Not an Easy Road to Jazz Guitar
One commentator said, "While this material isn't fit for beginners, you won't need any crazy Tuck Andress chops to get through it all." I'm not sure who Andress is, but he's much better than the intermediate guitarist. The book has a great range of material, featuring classics like My Funny Valentine and Body and Soul and The Girl from Ipanema. For a medium length book, one could not wish for a ...

Mel Bay's Well-Tempered Blues: 8 New Blues Tunes for Classical & Fingerstyle Guitar
William Beauvails
Mel Bay Publications, Inc.
, 2004
The blues present an opportunity to be deeply expressive. Every note can be colored with pitch bends, slides, vibrato, and all manner of attacks. The style makes it easy to own the music, to close your eyes and play as if you wrote it. These pieces are designed to be fun and entertaining as they work through the sharp keys, which are most friendly to the guitar. By working through these keys however, they develop a player's awareness of the ...

This is very good if you have the technique
This book is perfect for people who earn a full or part-time living playing instrumental guitar music. While not all the material here is useable (is any book thoroughly useful?), you will get finished and fingered arrangements by Muriel Anderson, Michael Chapledaine, Duck Baker, Marcel Dadi, Chris Proctor and Don Ross to name a few. Buster B. Jones is in there, so is Stephan Grossman. It's ...

Mel Bay New Orleans Jazz for Fingerstyle Guitar

Not for those with a discriminating ear...
Very disappointing. There were times while listening to the CD that accompanies this book that I thought I must be the victim of some kind of weird joke. The intonation on Mr. Hancoff's guitar is so off that for the most part he sounds wildly out of tune. I'm well aware that no acoustic guitar intonates perfectly, but this is ridiculous. The playing itself is of a high calibre, but as the ...

Antonio Carlos Jobim

Good basic guitar tabs for Jobims essential compositions
This is really an excellent little book, and for any intermediate level guitarist who wants to learn some Jobim tunes, this is the probably best place I have found to get started. What is really nice about this particular book is that each piece is very playable once you master the basic rhythm and the fingerings, but the arrangements are not in any way simplified. They remain very true to the ...
