The Emergency Nail Kit is for guitarist's who want to have a backup system in case of the worst scenario, accidentally breaking a nail.

The Emergency Nail Kit contains:
5 high grade ABM plastic nails
3 sheets of adhesive (48 applications)
1 roll of Transpore tape
Complete instructions

When you break a nail it is a real drag to wait around for weeks until the natural nail grows out. Your only alternative is to either suffer and play anyway, or glue on a false nail with super glue, which of course is not good for your real nail. This kit rejects the super glue solution. In its place is an adhesive that is not permanent, not toxic, goes on and comes off with ease, and really works in holding the false nail in place as you play guitar. Even if you play a lot and hard, these nails stay on fine and sound great. RICONAILS are the answer to the problem of broken nails. Also, this system can be utilized to enable any guitarist to stop using a synthetic toxic system (such as acrylics or glue on tips). This is all in Rico Stover's book Guitarist's Guide to Fingernails.

This book builds on the knowledge imparted in ‘The Guitar Grimoire: Scales and Modes’, to ease the player into reading music. Author Adam Kadmon’s aim is to get you to understand the system itself. The charts and grids in this book will help even the most inexperienced performer to gain mastery over the basic elements of music. The author has used the same lucid and comprehensive approach that has made all the books in the Grimoire series the talk of the music world.

These two pieces for classic guitar duo were composed for the Hanser-McClellan Guitar Duo. 'Two to Tango' is a tango rhapsody for two guitars using mainly tango rhythm combined with that of the milonga, another Argentinean dance closely related to the tango. The interaction of the two guitars playing single lines at times and then changing roles between the melody and the rhythm makes it more interesting for both players. 'Millennium Duet' was written as homage to Chet Atkins. The piece opens with a brief reflection of country and western rhythmic ideas, with a melody of a different character. It later moves on to other patterns, at times combining some Latin American rhythms with a little touch of jazz harmony. This book includes two separate guitar parts and a combined score. The companion CD features the premiere recording of the pieces by the Hanser-McClellan Guitar Duo. You can purchase this subscription to either start a new subscription, or to renew an existing one.

Part two in a series of two books for the classical guitar. They have been compiled to improve sight reading, an often neglected aspect of musicianship. With the guitar, musical components (scales, chords, arpeggios etc), may often be played in various positions. While this is one of the reasons that the instrument produces such colourful and interesting timbres, it also contributes to the difficulty of sight reading. In spite of, or perhaps because of this, it is important to develop facility in reading, recognising the notes, as well as the bar positions in which to play them, the fingerings, the rhythmic patterns and any markings of interpretation (dynamics, phrasing, articulation etc). These books provide an orderley and systematic approach to the study of sight reading, based upon standards for sight reading for the classical guitar found in respected schools around the world. Students, even in the primary stages of studying the guitar should be encouraged to sight read as much material as possible.
