fun flatpicking solos,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bluegrass Guitar Classics: 22 Carter-Style Solos (Paperback)
This is a compilation of flatpicking guitar solos, arranged in a "Carter" style (after that of Maybelle Carter of the renowned Carter Family). It has songs as "Jesse James, "Down Under," "John Henry" and many others. The Carter method uses single notes followed by chords which plays not just the melody, but the harmony, too. This is a very practical method of playing, especially if you're just one player. You can, essentially, play both parts at once. This book is a must for any flatpicker.

A Great Buy!,
By Crafty Mom (Southeast United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bluegrass Guitar Classics: 22 Carter-Style Solos (Paperback)
I own several bluegrass and flatpicking guitar books. Bluegrass Guitar Classics is my favorite, and it's also the least expensive. The song selection is great and the arrangements are simple enough for a beginner. I've been playing for four months and I learned to play Wildwood Flower and Down in the Willow Garden over a weekend. The book is a great introduction to Carter style guitar. The tab is clear and easy to read, unlike other books I own. This may be the vest $7.95 I've ever spent.
