I know that a lot of forum members enjoy playing in groups and duets rather than solo Uke. With this in mind, I'd like to make you aware of my attempt at a Christmas ebook, Christmas Ukulele Duets - http://ukeofcarl.com/portfolio-view/christmas-ukulele-duets/

A little back story -
A few years ago, my friend and I were asked to play Carols at a few local old folk's homes. We took our guitars, strummed some chords and had a whale of a time. However, I always thought we could do better, so the next year I put a bit of work into it and arranged a load of Carols for both Guitar and Uke. The Uke went down a treat with a lot of the pensioners. Many of them had fond memories of either playing or knowing someone who had played one in their youth.
Eventually I decided to ditch the guitars and just concentrate on the Uke, and that's how this book came to fruition. This year will be much more exciting, as we've also been asked to play in 2 local pubs and one of those is on Christmas Eve. Free beer ahoy!
I know it's not even December yet but I thought I'd offer it out here early to give time for plenty of practise. There's a free .PDF on the page and some examples of what the Carols might sound like.
