First off, I'm not a teacher. I'm happy to help as I can, but I DO NOT TEACH CBG! People ask lots of questions about my theory and tab posts, and I want to help, but the truth is, I AM NOT A TEACHER!

I'm working on this booklet of theory cheat sheets as a reference to help me with Keni Lee's lessons, as well as generally learning songs and writing new songs.

Enjoy!…
