American Fingerstyle Guitar

Tablature is available both in books for $15 and as single songs for $4.00 each. Books are listed first, followed by single songs in order of difficulty from the easiest to the most difficult.

Two new songs are available in TAB thanks to Mark Grover’s great transcribing: Rogers’ and Hammerstein’s classic Edelweiss from my album WinterNight, and one of my fans’ favorites Ella’s Labor Day Blues from my duo album with Joe Ebel, Kadotume. Edelweiss is performed in CGDGAD tuning and Ella’s Labor Day Blues is in open G minor tuning. Both are a blast to play, and the TAB is only $4!
