    I used it years ago and taught from it. Excellent fundamentals. If they have it, get the lesson plan booklet that outlines a good progression of the excercises by key.

    Although this is one of the older method books still in use (first published in 1908), it is still an excellent source of technique building exercises, that will upon completion, go a long way towards mastering intervals, trills, scales etc. Zero in the way of Jazz/Blues scales, theory etc. but it will get your fingers moving!

    Are you talking about the big blue cover book that is about as thick as a metro phone book? That's a really good method book. I've used it for years, and it's really helped me with my technique.
