This series of method books for guitar is the culmination of 30 years of playing, performing, studying, teaching and thinking about the guitar. It begins with the most fundamental concepts of music theory, applies them to the guitar, and systematically leads the student from the Blues and Triads, through 7ths, 9ths, altered 9ths and beyond, culminating in Altered Dominant Bitonals. A rigorously systematic approach, it nevertheless is guitar-centric in its application of musical principles.

Designed to be used under a competent instructor, it is Jay's answer to the poorly designed, disorganized, "shotgun blast" approach of many of the guitar methods on the market today. Jay has maintained 60 to 90 students a week since the mid eighties and his success in this area speaks for itself. He is currently building a network of teachers that are incorporating his books into their own programs.
