Guitar Master’s Hanon introduces you to the shifts, position playing, and fingering the Guitar Master system uses to cover a 3-octave scale
Beginner
Beginner level studies at Guitar Master are for guitarists with some playing ability and a knowledge of at least the basic scales but who cannot read music. These books familiarize players with the neck of the guitar and their corresponding notes on the staff–essential knowledge for further study in the Guitar Master system. These books are NOT for players picking up a guitar for the first time.
Intermediate
To work effectively with guitar books at this level, players need to be comfortable with sight reading, able to play scales and arpeggios, familiar with all the notes on the guitar neck and have an understanding of chords and chord progression. The Guitar Master books offered for this group present a very challenging jump beyond your current playing level.
Advanced
Guitar Master’s advanced material takes players into the highest registers of the guitar. To work with this material, guitarists need excellent sight-reading skills, familiarity with chromatics, and the ability to move across the entire neck of the guitar.
