Many of the solos encourage creativity with tone, expression and phrasing. Others are up-tempo and utilize Latin, jazz, bluegrass and Celtic rhythms. An ample amount of fingering and string markings are presented on each solo.

This is the third book in the Mel Bay "Achieving Guitar Artistry" series. It follows "Linear Guitar Etudes" and "Triads." The goal of this series is to present material able to develop the serious guitar student into a very accomplished player.
