Reneau's Guitar Stuff

 

Here are several resurces for guitar players that I used when I taught guitar. Some of the material is fairly basic, and some is intermediate to advanced. I was not able to convert convert some of my material to PDF format. If you're interested in the Jazz Lead Scales in musical notation, send a large stamped, self-addressed envelope to me at:

Reneau Peurifoy
P.O. Box 7915
Citrus Heights, CA 95621-7915

All of the following files are PDF files (Portable Document Format) so they can be used regardless of what type of operating system or word processor you use. The PDF files work best if you first download them to your computer, then open them. To download the file to your computer:

    1. Right Click on the file you want to download
    2. Select "Save Target As"
    3. Select the folder on your computer in which you want to store the file

If you have never worked with PDF files, you need to install a PDF reader on your computer. Click on this link to download a free PDF reader. Look for the area titled Readers. Then go to the line labeled Acrobat Readers and select the operating system you are currently using on your computer. If you have a dial up modem, the download will probably take about 45 minutes. Once you've installed the reader, the reader should load and open the the PDF file automatically when you click on it.

Please report any problems that you encounter so I can correct them.
