The Martin Taylor Guitar Method offers you the chance to study with one of the giants of jazz guitar. Hailed by guitar legend Chet Atkins as "One of the greatest and most impressive guitarists in the world today..." and celebrated by New York's Jazz Times as "Europe's finest guitarist," Martin shares the secrets of his style for the first time in this amazing tutor.

All music examples are transcribed in standard notation with tablature and played by Martin himself on the accompanying audio. You won't get a better chance to study with one of the instrument's true masters! Includes access to online audio.
