Goodness. Scott! 2000+ chords in 16 pages? ...By PedrovskiGoodness. Scott! 2000+ chords in 16 pages?!?!?Yes. fellow guitar players. you read that right. Scotts amazingly compressed system for guitar voicings/fingerings/usage. Some study time with his approach will produce huge dividends.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
