Curt Sheller and Curt Sheller Publications. A small (me, myself and I) independent, by choice, publishing company catering to the needs of musicians, guitar players and ukulele players worldwide. Offering the resources and information needed to develop as a musician. Curt Sheller Publications, created in 1995, has been on the web for over 15 years. I have over 40 years of playing experience and have been involved in private music education for the past 20 years.
Taking advantage of my jazz guitar skills, I began pursuing the potential of the ukulele. Researching the field, I saw very little material organized for the intermediate and advanced player. I have developed an international reputation as a ukulele expert having written over 20 books on the subject of ukulele.

"Just browsing over both books, they look fantastic! I'm a guitarist and uke player for over 25 years and was thinking about writing a ukulele book but you've already written what I think are the best, most comprehensive and thorough books I've ever seen for the instrument. I just might end up buying every book you've written and I'll be giving my highest recommendation for your books to my friends and students. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such great books!" - Peter Rhee

My Take on TAB!
Wikipedia states: "An alternate usage of the word "tab" is common on the internet, where it can also refer to conventional chord symbols (for harmony), or note names (for melody)."
This a departure from what has been traditionally known as TAB. There a lot of sites on the internet, especially ukulele sites popping up that claim to be TAB sites. These are mostly site with the chords and lyrics to songs, with chord diagrams.
For sites listed here I'll stick with the traditional, pre Internet, definition of what TAB is.
Rich, deep, stereo sound to go — introducing the AC-33, the world’s first AA battery-powered amp made specifically for acoustic guitar. Portable yet powerful, the AC-33 provides true stereo sound, Guitar and Mic/Line channels, custom-tailored effects, anti-feedback, and a Phrase Looper. But this amp was made to go places no amp has gone before. Thanks to its battery-power capability, the AC-33 lets you take your act anywhere — into the backwoods, onto the streets, or wherever your imagination leads you.
When the original JC-120 Jazz Chorus amp was introduced in 1975, its most obvious cosmetic distinction was its silver-cone speakers. And now these classic silver-cone speakers are back, giving the JC-120 the legendary clean amp sound found on countless records over the years. With the JC-120's lush chorus effects, dual-amp design and high-quality reverb, the "sound" is undeniable! 120 watts (60+60 stereo) and two 12" speakers.
(New for 2004) - Roland's CUBE-60 takes the acclaimed CUBE amplifier line to new levels and larger venues. It packs a punchy 60 watts of power into a compact 12-inch design, giving you the performance of a bigger amp, without the excess baggage. It features enriched COSM® amp models, popular digital effects, versatile outputs and well-respected reliability. Just like its popular siblings, CUBE-60 stretches the limits of where you can go with your music, both in terms of tone and venues. Powerful 60-watt output in a compact, 12-inch speaker design. Built-in 9 COSM guitar amp models, including JC, British Combo and R-Fire. New Dyna Amp feature offers expressive control over enhanced dynamics and tone transitions based on picking style. Six classic built-in Roland effects, including Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo and independent Delay/Reverb. Multiple outputs, including Recording/Phones Out, Line Out, Tuner Out and Ext Speaker Out (for connecting external cabinets). Channel switching, delay/reverb and effect on/off control via optional footswitch.
The Cube-30 represents an incredible value in compact guitar amps. Not only does this little brute pack a 10-inch speaker with 30 watts of punch, but it also has 3-band EQ, COSM Guitar Amp Modeling and built-in DSP effects. The COSM modeling gives you 8 distinct guitar amp sounds, while the EFX section offers chorus, flanger, phaser and tremolo. There's even independent Delay/Reverb processing-and the EFX section is controllable via optional footswitch! High-quality DSP guitar amplifier with 30-watt output and 10" speaker Includes 8 COSM guitar amp models: JC Clean, Acoustic, Black Panel, Brit Combo, Tweed, Classic Stack, Metal Stack, R-fier Stack Powerful onboard EFX section includes chorus, flanger, phaser and tremolo. Independent Delay/Reverb processor. Two-channel operation (Clean/Lead) with footswitch control of channels and EFX section. Recording/Headphone output for silent practice and recording. Auxiliary input for connecting CD players, drum machines, etc.
Don't let its diminutive size fool you-the Cube-15 sounds BIG! This 15-watt guitar practice amp includes an 8-inch speaker and a two-channel configuration with four popular overdrive and distortion colors, ranging from “Overdrive” to “Metal Stack.” Three-band EQ, plus a built-in Recording/Headphone output and Auxiliary input make this little amp a great value! Compact guitar amplifier with 15-watt output and 8" speaker. Two-channel operation (Clean/Lead) with footswitch control. Lead sounds include Overdrive, Distortion, Metal, and Metal Stack. 3-band EQ for precise tonal shaping. Recording/Headphone output for silent practice and recording. Auxiliary input for connecting CD players, drum machines, etc.
