Klappentext

Fingerstyle Book: Learn to Play Guitar Like the Pros! Do you dream of mastering the picking techniques of world-class guitarists like Tommy Emmanuel or Estas Tonne? This practical masterclass offers the perfect structured pathway to conquer fingerstyle guitar. The unique concept: You don't need to be an expert to sound like one! Every exercise is systematically designed so your fretting hand focuses on the simplest basic chords (such as C, G, E, or Am) in 1st & 2nd position. Even the feared F major chord is taught using an easy shortcut. Because your left hand remains completely relaxed, you can channel 100% of your focus into the precision and speed of your picking hand! The Step-by-Step Concept at a Glance:

The Foundation: 16 essential folk & Travis-picking patterns combined with 3 core techniques for a lightning-fast start. First Milestone: The exclusive performance piece "All in One" weaves all learned patterns together with smooth transitions. The Masterclass: 20 elite pro-techniques (including the fascinating Water Drop Technique and Pick Emulation) for perfect individual finger independence and coordination with the thumb. Grand Finale: The challenging concluding piece "Song for Tommy" unites all 20 advanced techniques into a stunning masterpiece.

Why This Book Will Revolutionize Your Playing: Erhard Brüning shares a powerful secret: anchoring your picking hand using the palm resting on the bridge (instead of the pinky finger on the body). The result? A distinctly clearer, brighter tone and the absolute freedom to use your ring finger flexibly at any time! Whether you are an ambitious beginner strumming campfire chords or an advanced guitarist looking to blend classical, ragtime, and picking elements into modern styles without picks; this book meets you right where you are. Let this book inspire you and unlock the tools to play any fingerstyle song in the world on your own terms!
