Bill Edwards Books

The Special Edition is the first two volumes of the Fretboard Logic guitar series combined, at a special discount. Part One deals with the pattern organization of the fretboard which results from the guitar's unique tuning system. Part Two teaches the tone groups of music - Chords, Scales and Arpeggios - by building them in the context of this pervasive pattern organization, and thereby eliminating the usual guesswork and rote memorization associated with these areas of a guitarist's education. This alone can take years off the learning curve. Combined, the two parts form a solid foundation by which a guitarist can intelligently pursue the music styles and technical approaches of their own choosing, and play them on the guitar types which they prefer.

In the spring of 1987, a personnel manager's stable life is disrupted when his boss presents him with a cryptic and threatening anonymous note. Tasked with interpreting the message due to his psychology background, Ed Underwood is unprepared for the chaos that follows. As he navigates this unsettling situation, the security of his job, relationship, and personal passions, including karate, begins to unravel, leading him into a web of intrigue and uncertainty.

Applications, Creative and Analytical is the part of Fretboard Logic where music theory is introduced in integrated into the unique characteristics of the instrument. After the necessary foundations are established in Volumes I and II, the guitarist now has the requisite skill set to start to tackle pitch and time relationships, and more importantly, to apply them in real world playing situations. A wide range of subjects are explained and presented in a non-linear format, which allows each player to study what is relevant to his or her needs, without wasting their time on areas in which they have no interest. Fretboard Logic offers a way to navigate the complexities of advanced music concepts without the boredom and frustration usually associated with learning these subjects on a guitar.
