This is a compact tab e-book without bells and whistles, but good focus on the essence. It is optimized to be printed as small (half letter size) booklet with 16 pages. The level of difficulty is somewhat mixed, you’ll find anything from easy to hard.
This is a german e-book, but it is a pure tablature book, and contains no text content to speak of.
A set of MP3 recordings of all arrangements is available too. It is sold separately, because the download is relatively large.
(Please note that the MP3 and video recordings are not always 100% identical with the arrangements. However they always represent very well how the respective arrangement can be played with the ukulele.)
