David Mead got the idea for this book from the Canadian Air Force, who published a ten-minute-a-day physical fitness schedule for modern times. The book recognised that many people needed to exercise but had little time to spare, so it offered a regime that would bring about a good level of fitness from a time investment of only ten minutes a day. The same obstacle stands before countless guitar students. Work, kids, commuting, washing up - all come before guitar practice. 10 Minute Guitar Workout is the solution for anyone wanting to develop their guitar skills without sacrificing their precious time. In a Series of graduated exercises designed specifically to enhance technique rapidly and painlessly, and with the support of a full-length audio CD, it's now possible for guitar students to practise their new-found skills in the shortest possible time and still achieve satisfying results.

The Nashville Number System was originally written and published in 1988 by Chas. He has rigorously updated and edited the book for each of 7 subsequent editions. Featured here is the 2005 printing and 7th edition of The Nashville Number System; expanded with the inclusion of the cd/cd rom, String Of Pearls. By word of mouth, it has become the most recommended source for learning the Number System. The Nashville Number System is used as a text at Berklee College of Music, in Boston, Belmont University, in Nashville, and MTSU in Murfreesboro,TN. SYNOPSISIn the late 50's, Neil Matthews devised a musical number system for the Jordanaires to use in the studio. Charlie McCoy and fellow studio musicians began adapting Matthews' number system into chord charts. The Nashville Number System has evolved into a complete method of writing chord charts and melodies---combining Nashville shorthand with formal notation standards. The Nashville Number System is 130 pages with a step by step method of how to write a Nashville number chart for any song. Included with each NNS book in Edition 7 is the cd, "String Of Pearls". This is a 10 song cd of instrumentals, including, Amazing Grace. I walk you through the details of each song and explain the Number System tools used to write the charts. Now, while listening to the cd, you can see and hear how Nashville number charts work.String Of Pearls is an Extended CD (CD ROM). As well as high quality audio that will play in your cd player, you can insert the disc into your computer and watch animated number charts as you listen to the songs. On the cd rom, there is a click track with each song and a highlight moving from chord to chord in time with the music. You can see exactly how to count each measure in real time with the music. Counting bars is probably the hardest part of the number system to teach. With this cd rom, you will be able to see, hear and feel how these charts work.
