Celebrate the Holidays … Acoustic Holiday Christmas Collection

Celebrate the Holidays

with Fretmentor.com 

Hello Everyone –

Yes … Happy Holidays.  It is not too soon to begin practicing for those holiday parties. 

Our friend David Jakubiak at www.fretmentor.com has recently released Fretmentor’s Acoustic Holiday – 12 Songs of Christmas for Banjo, Guitar, Mandolin and Fiddle.  This music collection is one of kind, since it provides entire standardized arrangements of Christmas tunes for all acoustic instruments, which is ideal for individuals and bands alike.

Fretmentor’s Acoustic Holiday Christmas Collection has taken a year and a half to complete.  It consists of both standard musical notation and tablature for 12 Christmas tunes.  These songs especially are written for acoustic instruments but can of course be played by other instruments as well. You can view the list of 12 songs by going to the fretmentor library or clicking on this link to the fretmentor library:

All songs are now in the new Tef format and can be played in computer generated midi format.  With the free Tabledit Tef viewer, you will be able to hear the tabs and standard musical notation exactly as it is written.  You can even slow the tempo of each song to play along with it as you are learning.  All chords are provided for you to also play the rhythm along with the lead.  In addition, lyrics to each song are provided.

The entire collection of songs is $35.00 (additional $1.00 charge if paying by paypal). That is approximately $2.91 per song. You can pay by personal check or Paypal.  Once authorized, you can download each song to your computer.  Instructions on how to download the Free Tef view program will also be provided.  In addition, any updates (including video or instructional audio files) that may be provided in the future will be accessible to you as well. Please contact Fretmentor via email for further ordering instructions.

We at First Quality Music and http://www.fretmentor.com/ wish you all in advance, a happy holiday and happy picking.
