Additional Details
Most solos use the basic “bass note/strum” of Carter-style technique with melodies integrated into common chord patterns. Others feature “the arpeggio strum,” a beautiful chord melody technique. Along the way you’ll explore transposing solos from one key to another, changing and mixing meter (3/4 to 4/4), soloing in more than one octave, playing a solo with others as a round, and more!

Customer feedback:
“I purchased your Christmas Favorites for Solo Guitar in early November and was able to master most of the songs by Christmas; although, at slower tempos. We had great fun as a family singing the songs on Christmas and everybody enjoyed the arrangements. Thank you for such a great reference. It allowed me to integrate my guitar playing into the family for the first time. Next year they will be up to tempo.” D.B. (USA)
