All songs are notated in both music and guitar TAB notation; if you cannot read music, you can still play all of the songs offered in this book.
The advanced arrangements have been arranged in a style based around the work of contemporary folk guitarists like Tony McManus, Stephen Wake and Ian Melrose. In this style, traditional melodies are combined with elements from other genres.
