Default Studies for fingerstyle guitar

Hi folks!

I have begun to write several short studies for fingerstyle guitar that focuses on different techniques. Learning this pieces will give you more tools to your guitar toolbox.

Here is lesson one:

This project will be entirely free and you can download free tabs here:

I hope some of you will give it a try!

Please, write in this thread if there are special things that you want to get better at and I will try to write something that focuses on that.

Have a great day full of guitar playing

/ Cim

Cim, what a generous sharing of your talents. Thank you! For those of us who aren't quite up to your level, how would you rate this piece in terms of difficulty? I would love to learn some of your songs although they appear to be a somewhat daunting endeavor.

Thank you for your feedback

I understand! This song is written to be fairly easy but to sound a bit harder than it actually is so I would say you can do it.

Default something to learn

Thanks for making these available. The study sounds great, and this looks like something I can actually learn! I look forward to your other studies.

Default Tab download

The link to the tab is the text "Study 1" on the bottom left of the video link. It's not highlighted, but it links to the pdf. Or just use this URL: http://cimfrode.com/wp-content/uploa...05/Study-1.pdf

It's tab plus notation, and very nicely done.

It's a bit unclear but click the text where it says "Study 1", I will make it a bit clearer.
