Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need to read music for this?
No. Arrangements are in tab, so fret and string positions are given directly. Rhythm reading still helps you get the timing right.
02Will this work on a classical guitar?
Yes. Fingerstyle arrangements suit nylon strings, and the wider neck spacing can make picking-hand placement easier.
03Is there audio to hear how the pieces should sound?
No audio comes with it. This is a print songbook.
04Is this good for someone who has never fingerpicked?
It is a reasonable starting point if you already know basic chords. Expect to slow arrangements down considerably before they lock in.
