I used the original book back in 1970 to teach myself classical guitar. When I was done (in a year or so), my proudest achievements were 1) Being able to read standard sheet music and play a piece immediately (slowly at first, of course) and 2) Playing some great classical pieces, as evidenced by a Segovia concert I attended in which he played several songs I knew and played from this book. For the self-starter who has a passion for playing, this is one of the best books you can buy.

I always played guitar but never by reading the notes so I bought this book and it turned out to be so good. after only 3 weeks of practice I'm able to read the notes easily, my playing skill has improved remarkably,I Learned new techniques and started playing through notes new beautiful pieces.

it's great for beginners and for intermediates who want to improve their playing skill.
