The first edition of this work, Classic Guitar Technique, was the result of a desire to present a basic and orderly approach to the development of classic guitar technique.
Since the book was written, some six years ago, my conviction that the approach to technical development presented in this book was valid has been generously substaintiated by my own students, teachers with whom I am in daily contact, and students and teachers from other parts of the country whose comments by letter and in person have been most helpful and gratifying.
