A technical manual for the modern-day, serious guitar player, this is much more than just a book of exercises. This book presents a philosophy of what it really means to play the guitar well, and how to make technical improvement a consisten part of your musical life. So You Want to Get Better at Guitar works from the premise that technique is about much more than just playing fast; it's about the accuracy, ease, and balance with which you play. All of these things combine to allow to make the music you want to make, to get past the instrument itself and live in the musical moment.
