Synopsis

Written for the intermediate to advanced fingerstyle player, this landmark book introduces the guitarist to the world of seven strings. The 7-string guitar has been around for a very long time and has become popular with jazz and rock players only recently. Compared to the usual 6-string model, the 7th string gives the player ability to play low pitches and relatively high pitches simultaneously in the same fret range. This characteristic offers the guitarist significant musical advantages and according to the author, can change the way you think about the guitar and its music. For the first time in print, here is seasoned 7-string guitarist's reasoned introduction to an old instrument with enhanced capabilities. The book includes ideas about notation in the low A range, scales, parallel 10th's, 7-string comping, melody and chord-melody playing, accompanying yourself and others, plus archtop specialist Robert Benedetto's discussion of the most important structural features to be noted in building and purchasing a 7-string guitar. Written in standard notation and tablature.
