Savarez 520R Traditional Red Card Strong Tension Classical Guitar Strings


Saverez Traditional trebles are made of rectified nylon which is characterized by a distinctive unpolished finish. This grittiness contributes to a lessening of the high overtones. Because of their texture, the treble strings are unusually controllable with regard to vibrato and stability. The characteristics of their tone make their pitch particularly clear and true. The basses are on the warm and soft side, and their tone is strong overall.

These are my favourite strings for the best sound from my guitar.

Progressive Classical Guitar Method: For Beginner to Intermediate Students [Book 1]


I'd been playing the guitar for about a year on a steel string  acoustic when I decided to start playing classical so I bought a classical nylon guitar along with this method book from progressive. I had other progressive series books and primers, but for the classical guitar this was the best.This book has about a hundred pages or so of quality lessons and excercises.The book is all musical notations and fingerstyle lessons.It doesnt contain any TAB lines.It also contains a fretboard guitar notes diagram and a music glossary at the end of the book.If you have a passion to learn classical guitar this is the book for you.


Progressive Masterpieces of the 19th (Classical Guitar)


Jason Waldron has compiled a great set of classical guitar pieces which would make you crave for more. The CD is a big help to get that fingerpicking right. The songs are arranged (approximately) in order of difficulty and grouped according to keys. This is my first classical guitar book and ever since Ive laid Dave Matthews and the gang on the side. Im still at #21 (out of 56!) but at this stage my technique is getting finer. The songs alternate from joyful to somber, always giving a "feel" -- beyond reading and listening -- for the most romantic period in human history. It seems to me that this hobby would last a lifetime. Long live Sor and Giuliani!

One of the questions often asked in respect of the Classical Guitar is do you need to read music or can you learn from Classical Guitar Tablature? The answer is that it is better to take lessons and learn to read music. The Classical Guitar Tabulature only shows the fingering for the left hand, whilst the music which is written all in the treble clef gives the timing for each note, and it is also conventional that the music for classical guitar be annotated with the right hand fingering, and often the left hand fret position too.

It is personal preference as it is quite possible for highly talented individuals to play entirely by ear, using their sense of tone, timing and rhythm to pick up the correct notes and sequences to play. However as a general rule I would recommend learning to read music, because those who master sight reading are able to play anything from the original scores. The trained musician who masters Classical Guitar and who can sight read will always be in demand, that is not to say that tabulature does not have a place in learning to play the Classical Guitar it certainly does and many quality players use tabs to help them learn new pieces.

This was a truly enjoyable moment and wasn’t really so serious as it looked like. Something I have to learn literally overnight for a class, it’s a bit rusty, but so what, have fun anyway. :-)
