Three Volumes Of This Classic Guitar Method In One Convenient Book

Created by popular demand, this new edition of the method used as the basic text for the renowned Berklee College of Music guitar program is a complete compilation of the original Volumes 1, 2, and 3. Innovative solos, duets and exercises progressively teach melody, harmony and rhythm. Perfect for the serious guitar student and instructor alike.

The William Leavitt guitar method, used as the basic text for the Berklee College of Music guitar program, has stood the test of time and earned a vast and loyal following of dedicated guitar students and instructors. Now, serious guitar students and instructors, from beginning through advanced, have the convenience of progressing through all three volumes of this classic guitar method in one comprehensive book. Innovative solos, duets, and exercises progressively teach melody, harmony, and rhythm. 424 pages. 

This edition contains audio and video produced by William Leavitt's students Charles Chapman and Larry Baione (who was his successor as chair of the Berklee Guitar Department), demonstrating the examples and providing play-along tracks for the ensemble exercises.

Volume 1 – A beginning-level book presenting a comprehensive range of guitar and music fundamentals, including:

  • scales
  • melodic studies
  • chord and arpeggio studies
  • special exercises for both hands
  • accompaniment techniques
  • a unique approach to voice leading using moveable chord forms

Volume 2 – An intermediate level book that continues and builds upon the study of melody, scales, arpeggios, and chords, covering the entire fingerboard. This volume also addresses:

  • intervals
  • chord voicings
  • improvisation
  • rhythm-guitar techniques
  • play-along duets

Volume 3 – A continuation and expansion of topics presented in Volumes 1 and 2. Includes advanced techniques relating to scales, arpeggios, rhythm-guitar, chord/scale relationships, chord construction, chord voicings, and playing tips.

Review:

“These books will always feature in my ‘all time best’ list. All three books should be in every guitarist’s bookshelf – in my case they became a musical bible that I will surely use my whole life. To me this is the best overall guitar method I have come across.”
