New Publication

I’m very excited to announce the publication of my new book on drop chord voicings!

THE DROP VOICING BOOK FOR GUITAR: A Complete Guide to Drop 2, Drop 3, Drop 2&3 and Drop 2&4 Chord Voicings & Inversions

“A superb piece of work, which deserves ample success and lasting impact.” – Ricardo Iznaola 

THE DROP VOICING BOOK FOR GUITAR is a comprehensive text covering the logic behind “drop” voicings and their application to harmonic progressions and voice-leading. This ground-breaking resource investigates/includes:

  • How “drop” voicings are formed, and their application to the guitar
  • Four types of drop voicings on nine string sets
  • The art of spacing or voicing chords
  • Six “core” 6th & 7th chord qualities 
  • How to derive voicings from elemental forms
  • How to move beyond mere memorization and recitation of shapes and voice-lead harmonic textures spontaneously
  • Nine comprehensive studies on the Autumn Leaves chord progression 
  • Reductive techniques to tailor density & register to ensemble/context
  • Using chordal knowledge to improvise harmonically-specific melodies
  • Harmonizing melodies: “chord-melody” playing
  • Extended tertian harmony
  • Substitution & superimposition theory and techniques
  • Alteration techniques to create an enormous palette of additional chord qualities
  • Free audio downloads
  • TAB, standard notation, diagrams, and comprehensive charts for practice and reference
