The arrangements presented in this book are for the Upright and Bass Guitar. They are cleverly arranged to match the complimentary books in this series: Mandolin Christmas, Fiddle Christmas, Banjo Christmas, Dobro Christmas and Guitar Christmas.

The arrangements are presented with standard bass notation for the Upright and Bass Guitar Tablature. The songs are presented with a Bass Solo and also the backup when playing with a group.

Several play-along audio recordings have been prepared to give you and idea of how the arrangements sound with the instruments playing together and other recordings minus the Bass, affording you the opportunity to fill in the missing parts.
