If you're just getting started, Chris Proctor will show you how to coordinate your thumb and fingers, while Jim Wood will teach you how to use fingerstyle accompaniment to create subtle timbres and textures. Mark Hanson will teach you to arrange for solo guitar, while blues wizard David Hamburger gets you thumping out a steady bass drone, spinning single-note licks and double-stops, and playing 12-bar blues. You also get nine complete songs to play.
