Below is the Table of Contents
for Vertical Truth-Chordal Mechanisms for
the Guitar. Keep in mind that each unit
is a separate book. Units 1 and 2 are not
comprehensive. For example, I do not give every
possible fingering of the Minor Pentatonic scale.
The first two units are designed to give the
student the most amount of usable stuff for the
least amount of work and to provide a workable
foundation for the units that follow. Starting
with Unit 3 (Triads) the content becomes much
more comprehensive.
