With acoustic guitar sales bucking the downturn and instead going through the roof, at GT we thought we'd do something special for all you pickers, strummers and tappers of both steel and nylon-string acoustics.
So we have 35 pages of fantastic things for you to learn, from Beatles acoustic styles through great songs from James Taylor, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed, and a phenomenal Mozart workout for classical guitar.
Of course we could never leave our electric players stranded, so all the usual blues, rock, jazz, theory and technical lessons are there as usual.
Please let us know if you enjoy this issue as much as we did putting it together for you. Email guitartechniques@futurenet.com with comments or suggestions, or respond to this blog.
