Editorial Reviews

With Modern Guitar Method I was finally able to understand how to use scales to take a solo.

Reviewer - Michael Malahy

I almost can't believe how much my ear has improved after having used this method. The chapter on understanding the fingerboard helped me learn the guitar on an entirely new level.

Reviewer - Luke Skidmore

Now that I can read and write lead sheets, band practices are a breeze.
