Solo Arrangements

There are 20 examples. They can all be played with a pick only, without using the fingers on the right hand. The arrangements are not too adventurous, and most of them should be accessible even if you are new to solo guitar. The sound files are rendered from Guitar Pro 6, including the click from the metronome, and converted to mp3 format (mono, 96kb/s). Listen carefully for sustained notes and have a look at the corresponding left hand fingering which is often constructed so that several notes can be heard at the same time. Make sure you can keep up with the metronome. The tablature is available in the source format gpx from Guitar Pro 6, as well as in the two graphical formats png and pdf. If the time signature is not 4/4, or the feel is triplet rather than straight, it is indicated in red in the table in order to draw your attention to it.

The notation is provided in tablature, and in the two experimental chromatic formats clock notation and MSG (see Noteworthy -> Notation). As a general rule, phrasing is included in the tablature but not in the chromatic notation. The purpose of the chromatic notation is to make it easy to see which notes you are supposed to play, so ties, slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs are removed. If you want to practice a particular song you must consult the tablature for details about the phrasing and fingering.
