Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ragtime fingerstyle guitar is one of the most satisfying ways of playing. If you love the challenge and want to try some syncopated rhythms, or move away from the normal arpeggiated fingerstyle of picking, then the tunes in this volume are just for you. There's a mix of classic tunes that I have arranged by players such as Big Bill Broonzy or Rev. Garry Davis, and a whole bunch of ditties that I've written in the ragtime style. Some tunes are more difficult than others, but well worth the effort if you want to improve your picking style and build on your repetoire. So, put on your dancing fingers and let's get stuck into some great tunes. Audio is available if you follow the links. Also, most pieces are supported by video.

I started the long journey on the fingerstyle road when I had my first classical guitar lessons many years ago. From there my interest in grew into using folk styles of fingerstyle, especially after listening to players of the folk boom era of the the 60's and early 70's: Nick Drake, Paul Simon, Bert Jansch, Martin Carthy, John Renbourne and many more. I was amazed at the textures of sound you could get out of a simple six string, using either regular tuning, or the whole range of altered tunings just waiting to be explored. In this volume I'll be sharing with you some of the very first folk fingerstyle tunes that I tried on my road to playing guitar. Some are my arrangements of traditional tunes and a few are my own compositions in the folk style. So, put on your folk fingers, and get ready to weave your way around the strings. There are audio and video links to all the 12 tunes.
