Happy new year!

Welcome back guitarists, hope you have all had a good christmas break! Term 2 begins in ernest with some groups preparing for their rock school exams whilst others will be gearing up for our easter gig.

All charts for this term will be posted up as we begin rehearsing, keep your eyes on the blog!

In the meantime here's a relaxing little number by Jose Gonzales to break the new term in gently:

Greetings guitarists, welcome back to the second half term and the countdown to the christmas gig!

New charts have been posted on the blog including a slightly simplified version of 'Many of Horror' by Biffy Clyro and the excellent 'Come on Home' by Franz Ferdinand.

For the monday at 7 group: click here for something that will help you with strumming and reading rhythm notation.

Meanwhile for the tuesday at 7 lot, here's something to play along to:

Half Term: not far off!

Greetings guitarists,

Well done for all your hard work this half term and many thanks for all your helpful suggestions on making the blog easier to use. We have one more week to go before our half term break and I am pleased to say that most bands have half their set ready for the christmas gig (17th-18th Dec)

New charts have been posted for this week, including the lead guitar parts for Get Back, Shine On, and full chart for the epic Sweet Child o' Mine

Happy practicing everyone!

Blog Update

Attention Wills' guitarists:

As requested charts will now be arranged on different pages according to the day of the week in which you have your lesson. For example if your lesson is on a tuesday then all charts for the tunes you are learning can be found in 'Tuesday Full Charts' or 'Tuesday Condensed Charts'. This will hopefully alleviate the problem of your computer freezing up when you want to access a chart in future.

New charts are up for this week so get practicing!

All the best,

Will Thomas

New Charts

Hi All,

New charts are being posted up on the blog over the course of this week so keep your mouse fingers handy!

I've decided to split the charts up into two pages. Full charts including solos second and third guitar parts can be found by clicking the Full Charts page. Simpler charts that contain chord and structure information plus verbal pointers can be found on the Condensed Charts page.

Happy practicing people!
