YouTube is full of fingerstyle Beatles tunes.

I am more or less looking for someone who teaches the Beatles arrangements.
I do like youtube, but It could be hit or miss.

Thanks
Carmelo

Stephen Bennett taught a course on fingerstyle Beatles at the Swannanoa Gathering in 2015. Great player and arranger. Very nice guy... drop him a line.

Lookup Hiroshi Masuda on Youtube.

Buy his CDs and you get access to the tabs for his arrangements. There's enough there to keep you going for a long time.

Another option is to check out Dan C. Holloway's site (http://www.dancholloway.com/). While the selection is nowhere near as extensive as Hiroshi's, Dan does have some good arrangements of a few Beatles tunes.

What about Laurence Juber? His cd "LJ plays the Beatles vol 2" has a tab book for the whole album, and vol 1 has some of the tracks available in other books. A lot of it is in DADGAD. Great arrangements. I play his Yesterday, In My Life and Strawberry Fields Forever.

Lance Allen, a forum member, teaches fingerstyle via Skype and Facetime.

http://www.acousticguitarforum.com/f...er.php?u=84258 He has a couple of Beatles songs on youtube.

You might also want to consider Steven King, www.kingofguitar.com. National fingerstyle champion in the mid 90s. Has a bunch of tabs thru his Fingerstyle Guitar College, which has a link on his main website. Steven has at least 7 CDs of fingerstyle Beatles music, solo, that he arranged. Amazing stuff. I don't know what the selection is on his Fingerstyle Guitar College page, but worth a look.

Default Beatles Fingerstyle

Hi my name is Gavin Libotte and I am currently arranging every Beatles song for solo guitar.

ATM I am working my way through the White Album giving away my arrangements in notation/tab for FREE.

Resurrecting this old thread.
I just bought Laurence Juber's transcriptions of his CD, Laurence Juber Plays Lennon and McCartney.
Totally new to DADGAD so maybe this is a bit ambitious.
Love his versions.
