Check out the books that are listed through out the site. All are of interest and value for jazz guitarists. Here they are collected on one page (Useful Music & Guitar Books).

OR better yet buying one of my books or CDs helps support the cost of making this information available. ;-) It's FREE for YOUR viewing but costs me to make it available.

Books available directly through Curt Sheller Publications and this site are listed here.

Online Instructions and Information

Some of the online sites that I have checked out.

Jim Kroger has posted his page of links to online jazz guitar lessons.

Here are sites that I have visited and found to be very useful.
