The method contains Latin folksongs arranged for the beginning tres player plus examples of repeated, often syncopated underlying vamps called montunos.

Includes instructions for converting a normal 6-string guitar to a tres guitar, offering suggestions for appropriate string gauges. Standard notation only. 47 pp.
