There are 6 books in total including 2 from the “Learn Guitar” series which teach an absolute beginner how to play with a step by step guided approach, 1 book which is a complete transcription of all 8 tracks in the acoustic album “Summer Jam”, and 3 books in the “Performance” series which have 2 volumes of 25 beautiful pieces for fingerstyle guitar, and a 3rd book which has 100 of the best songs to sing and play to a live audience. The books are:

All the books have accompanying multimedia to help guitar players, including Youtube videos and mp3 tracks which can be downloaded.
The LEARN GUITAR series have 80 videos which are indexed throughout the books. Each time a lesson has an accompanying video the reader is invited to take a look for more information. All the videos on Youtube refer to which book title, chapter, session, and individual lesson they apply to.
The new PERFORMANCE series of books has Youtube videos showing Justin performing the fingerstyle pieces, or for the 100 Songs to Play LIVE there are complete backing tracks with bass and drums for the songs. Many of the backing tracks are recordings of the actual bass player Duncan and drummer Jono from Justin’s covers band “Lapse of Reason” – they were recorded for a bit of fun, but then proved to be an invaluable for Justin to enjoy playing some solo gigs and sharing with his students also.
The TRANSCRIPTION book Summer Jam is a complete transcription of the 8 pieces released on the 2016 album Summer Jam, which is available on CD, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon, Apple, or any other major music retailer.
