Default Fingerstyle Guitarist

This is a really nice website with some nice reviews. If any of you have used any of these books, it would be nice to hear your review! I am in particular looking to learn different fingerstyle patterns as I use arpeggios mainly.

Anyone use Homespun?

This is Paul Kucharski's website, and it's always been a favorite of mine.

One of the best, Lisa, though it has a decided concentration on DADGAD tuning, is Pierre Bensusan's "The Guitar Book"...a wonderful primer with great information on playing, preparing to play, patterns and exercises, and some easy and some VERY challenging pieces to learn (plus recipes!).

Thanks so much!

Homespun is really cool. You can run the videos at slow speed so you can take your time and pick up what the guitarist is doing.
