I can't locate that book online.
Please provide more info. Author, source. Is the title correct?
Thanks

I misquoted title. It should have been "A Modern Method for Guitar - Volumes 1, 2, 3 Complete" located here on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Modern-Method...gateway&sr=8-1 . This is a popular Berklee School of Music instruction manual. There are a number of exercises that have chords and a lead line. My intent is to write out the chords for these exercises and share, so folks could use to play the leads lines over it. I've written about 20 of these exercises so far, and it's a GREAT help for practice. This was my first try at uploading and sharing. The title is correct - "MMG2, P.068, 5th Position Study No.2", BUT the MMG actually means "Modern Method for Guitar", not "Mastering Modern Guitar". The number "2" in the MMG2 means second volume, and I follow that with page number and exercise name.

YIKES, I also noticed I applied the incorrect name to the Post's title! I wrote "Mastering Modern Guitar, Volume 2, page 64, Melodic Rhythm Study No.5", where it should have been "Mastering Modern Guitar, Volume 2, page 68, 5th Position Study No.2". The uploaded chord chart is for page 68, not 64. I must have done the upload before my daily coffee intake kicked in....

I'm grateful to the original poster for starting this. I believe I've corrected their work to match Leavitt's written notation now:

Study #1 - Leavitt

Again, thanks to the original poster for starting this off. I've corrected Study #1A here to match Leavitt's sheet music.

Study # 1A - Leavitt

My version of Leavitt Study #2A, with a few additional elements (rests, NC at end).
