Techniques Editorial Review

The First 100 Picking Patterns for Guitar is the perfect book for anyone wanting to perfect their fingerpicking on guitar. It covers all the picking patterns you could want and emphasizes technique, muscle memory and finger independence. The initial exercises are all open string so that you can focus on right-hand technique. Each exercise builds on the previous one, combining finger independence and muscle memory, and requires a metronome for developing timing and speed. It appears that each exercise follows the previous in the same manner, building a little on the skills developed with no sudden gap in technique required. The book comes with audio downloads so that you can listen and play along. Overall, it is a clear and concise book and a great teaching and learning tool for beginners and intermediate players alike.
