Excellent! I bought it for the routine he follows on the day of the concert but read the whole thing. Engaging and non-pretentious writing made this a really fun read. This will be a reference for myself and my students. Every guitar teacher or performer should have this book. The concepts presented are straight forward and easy to apply.
