Following is an original composition for solo electric guitar. "A Slight Disagreement" is the first of my "Electric Etudes". A soundfile of this work can be heard on the Guitar Nine Records Undiscovered page.

Performance Notes:

  • The piece is primarily in the first position.
  • Accent all picked notes
  • Work with short sections at a slow tempo. When ready, increase tempo, and move on.
  • Bars 34 and 35 require an unusual combination of barring and slurs - this will probably take some time to master.


Dial up your overdriven tones and check it out! If anyone is interested in the rest of the "Electric Etudes", or has any questions, please contact me via e-mail.

Click below on the small graphics of the music to bring up a full page version (with tabulature and standard notation), suitable for printing.
