Chapter Eight: Reading sheet music -The notes on the staff and the notes on the guitar

	Each string on your guitar is one of the notes on the staff but the guitar plays in a deeper range than is shown in this staff..
	As the notes move up or down the sequence of E-F-G-A-B-C-D is repeated. You just keep the same sequence. So the next note after D is E. This E is one octave higher than the first one.
	To show this on the staff lines are added below or above the staff as needed The image at left shows more notes added (in blue) Above and below the staff. The space directly below our staff is a D note and the space directly above our staff is a G note.
	Here are the open strings on your guitar and where you find them on the staff.
	This is the low E note on the staff. It is the fattest string on your guitar played open.
	Here are all six strings
	Play these six open notes and correlate them in your mind with the notes on the staff. Try playing variations. Look at the note you play on the guitar and look a the note on the staff.

A Modern Approach to Classical Guitar -

Now Available With CDs! This multi-volume method was developed to allow students to study the art of classical guitar within a new, more con-temporary framework. For private, class or self-instruction. Book One features an all-new format that incorporates chord frames and symbols, as well as a record to assist in tuning and to provide accompaniments for at-home practice. Book One also introduces beginning fingerboard technique and music theory. Book Two and Three build upon the techniques learned in Book One.

(I have a full page review of this method of learning guitar. The review is right here
