Guitar Finger Independence Method Book by Mel Bay Publications

As a guitarist, have you ever dreamed of playing contrapuntal bass lines and melodies? Or maybe you would like to sound more like a pianist, able to perform fluently with independent right and left hands.

Playing multiple lines simultaneously can be one of the most physically and mentally demanding challenges posed by the guitar. Using the concept of planted notes–a fretting-hand finger that remains in place while the other fingers play scale-like passages or arpeggios– this book will methodically guide you towards right and left-hand finger independence.

Written in standard notation and tablature, this no-nonsense revolutionary method is the first of its kind. Together with 95 online audio recordings, it will help you build finger independence in both hands, approaching that of a pianist! Includes access to online audio.
