Beyond Basics Fingerstyle Guitar (The Ultimate Beginner Series)

Rating:
Summary: Buy this book!
Review: This is the fourth book I have purchased by Mark Hanson. I also have the Travis Fingerpicking, Solo Fingerpicking, and Christmas Noel. This book gets into basic information real fast and will have you playing some "REAL GOOD STUFF" fast. I was able to play the first song in about an hour. The book has many difficult appearing chord names--BUT--most of the chords are two fingered and can be moved up an down the neck to make for some really great accompaniment. You will be playing all over the guitar--and sounding like a pro real fast. The book gets into more complicated material towards the end--but this book is not as complicated as the earlier mentioned books--so I would recommend this one first.

Summary: Simple but deadly!
Review: Wow! After playing various guitar styles for years and years, I decided to learn a little fingerstyle guitar and boy am I glad I picked up this book. While only 56 pages, the book includes a CD and some GREAT practice pieces to learn. Hanson lays out the material in a format that is simple enough for a beginner but also challenging enough for the intermediate to advanced player. Highly recommended.
