About the Author
Author Bill Edwards started learning music on the piano at a young age in the traditional manner, playing classical music and reading standard notation. He became interested in popular music and the guitar in high school but those educational experiences centered around learning rock and roll songs by ear from records, and figuring leads and rhythms out by trial and error. In college, working part time as a music teacher, these dissimilar educational approaches finally came together when a guitar student asked him to show them how he was able to figure things out just by listening to it. The result was a discovery that became the cornerstone of Fretboard Logic, which is that while it has gone unrecognized and unexplained for centuries, the guitar's tuning system produces a separate and unique area of study and puts the instrument into a class by itself. The author took advantage of ongoing advances in personal computer technology and developed his own books and videos which offer innovations in several areas. Bill Edwards still plays guitar and piano every day and is always developing new projects in the fields of music, invention and education.
