A complete study of single string exercises, geared to today's conception and requirements. Scales and exercises are designed to build technique and control.

(Guitar Method). This practical, comprehensive method is used as the basic text for the guitar program at the Berklee College of Music. Volume One builds a solid foundation for beginning guitarists and features a comprehensive range of guitar and music fundamentals, including: scales, melodic studies, chord and arpeggio studies, how to read music, special exercises for developing technique in both hands, voice leading using moveable chord forms, and more.

This book is specifically targeted at the clasical guitarist who wants to master the full range of his or her instrument. By limiting each exercise to one string the student gains a familiarity with the notes found on each string, allowing the student to "feel"where a note is.

An excellent learning tool for the beginner who has no experience reading music on the bass guitar or the advanced student looking to improve their ledger line reading and general knowledge of each string.

The exercises presented here are the same that great teachers and world class music schools give to their advanced students. This is the first book to present them formally, and is a milestone of its kind. This book contains hard-core information and exercises that are plainly difficult; only dedicated musicians need apply. But if you are serious about your instrument, learning how to read on it, and learning where the notes are without looking at it, you've come to the right place. This book works in tandem with audio examples that can be downloaded form the internet, which will greatly aid in the absorption of information and the building of skill. Exercises for each string are presented in all keys. The book culminates in a final section which integrates playing on all four strings. This book is a required text at New York Universities and Princeton University Music department.
