Complete Method Book

I’ve been using A Modern Method for Guitar – Volumes 1 2 3 Complete ( Berklee Press) with some of my guitar students, and I recommend it for helping establish a solid foundation for serious musicians. Like so many method books, it has it’s particular approach, but it’s one that not only emphasizes exercises but also explains technique as it goes and is very inclusive. This method book was first recommended to me last summer by jazz guitarist Steve Jacobson , and I wish I’d discovered it long ago.
