120 ARPEGGIOS For FINGERSTYLE GUITAR: Easy and progressive acoustic guitar method with t

The exercises are really great! Bizarrely, the book is printed with the pages out of order, but it’s kind of a cute quirk :-)

Sehr schnell geliefert. Sehr gutes aufeinander aufbauendes Fingerpicking Buch. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Très bon livre pour qui veut progresser dans ce domaine.Avoir un peu de notions en anglais aide un peu mais comme tout est en tablatures il est facile d'apprendre avec.

This book consists of 120 exercises designed to move guitarists towards technical proficiency. The idea behind the book is that the various tuneful arpeggios gradually develop increasing dexterity in both hands. The exercises are in both tablature and standard notation, so one could learn note reading from them, but that is not their chief purpose. The one limitation of the book is the Nicola Mandorino does not adequately explain the entire purpose of the exercises in either the Introduction of the very brief and infrequent comments about the exercises. Nevertheless, this book definitely offers a way for even beginning guitarists to develop technical proficiency. I am using it in conjunction with Mandorino's other book, "Alternating Bass Guitar Method." If I could have only one book, I would choose that one, but both are excellent. In fact, I believe any guitarist wanting to move beyond mere rhythmic strumming should get both.

I'm a fan of Nick's online tabs and thought I'd give this book a try. You might consider it an updated version of Giuliani's studies, but with much more interesting and modern sounding progressions. My only complaint is that the chords are not marked, but it's a good exercise to try and work those out for yourself and write them it. I also bought some post-it tape to cover up the tab to encourage my notation reading practise.In short, there's a lot you can get out of this book whether you're beginning fingerstyle, or are experienced and looking to improve your technique.
