  1. Dear Bradford
    I have been playing guitar for about a dozen years. I recently bought a cordoba C9 crossover. I’m now starting with your book at the beginning. I’m very excited to go on this journey. My goals are to become a better music reader and a finger style player. My first love is jazz, particularly the standards. I have written 3 arrangements. My teacher is mostly a piano player, but she also teaches guitar and voice. She’s a very good musician. Thank you for your work.

  2. Hi Bradford,

    Huge thank you from Spain. I have tried before lots of videos and online reaources until I found your method, and now I am really progressing. As a father with 4 kids I do not have much time to practice but with your tips I finally can do it getting results. I am willing to finish the first method to buy the second one and see where I can get with my guitar skills. Thanks again.
