Mel Bay Complete Flatpicking Guitar Book by Steve Kaufman (2004-08-01) Sheet music – 1656

Steve Kaufman is a great bluegrass guitar player, but is better known for his instructional materials. This is an excellent package, with a book, CD and DVD. Steve begins with beginner lessons and advances to bluegrass tunes that require some developed skill. Not only is there "something for everybody" in this package, but wherever you are, you can find the lesson that will take you to the next level. The CD/DVD combination package is a great value and I have learned several bluegrass classics as a result of buying this book. Get it!

I have a lot of studenst who like this book once they are throught the first month or so of basic playing. You'll learn chords, single line flatpicking solos, accompaniments, Carter style, Flatt runs and a whole lot more. What more could you want for general guitar playing. Well if you do want more in the bluegrass flatpicking style, Steve Kaufman has an huge array of materials to help you. If you're looking to learn Flatpicking style and you like bluegrass then Steve is a good guy to go with as you teach yourself through his books and DVDs. It will take you years to get through them all.

Excellent book for flatpicking. Its challenging. Yet, once you get the song down you will enjoy coming back to them and playing them daily.

I got this book at the recommendation of my guitar teacher. I wasn't sure how it would be to have a book with a CD and DVD, but it has been great. It's taking me some time to get through everything, but I can honestly say that I am getting better. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn how to flatpick.

This is a really good resource for learning flatpicking

great product

Anything by Steve Kaufman is always the best of the best. I only wish I would have paid closer attention to him years ago.

VERY good and strongly recommend
