Welcome to the main site of 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 with the resources and information needed to develop as a musician. Curt Sheller Publications was created by Curt Sheller (me) in 1995 and has been on the web since. I have over 40 years of playing experience and I have been involved in private music education for the past 20 years.
With my re-introduction to the ukulele after a 20 year break and taking advantage of my jazz guitar skills, I began pursuing the potential of the ukulele. Researching the field I saw very little material organized at a level that really worked. I have developed an international reputation as a ukulele expert having written over 30 books on the subject of ukulele and over 10 books on guitar.
You can checkout my Music, Art, Publishing and Programming bios at: Bios. Have work a lot of different hats over my adult working career - music and art has always been a big part of it.
Updates and new information posted just about everyday.
If I'm not teaching or gigging I'm working on the web site.
New look and site cleanup for 2012
Here we go a gain with another site look 'n' feel change. In an endless quest to make to site easy to use and find stuff, I've update the site to a new clean, hopefully faster site. I'm pretty happy with this latest iteration.
As a graphic artist, in addition to the other hats I wear, I've always loved drawing cartoons. I never got any good at it, but keep trying. So after stumbling on the ToonClipart.com web site and the art of Ron Leishman. I finally have the style of art that I've always wanted to draw myself and use on the site. I just love Ron's work.
Fewer menus with a lot of the non music content that I've collect over the years is still there, just not available through any of the main menus. I've placed it in a Miscellaneous section.
Lessons, books, and songs are now searchable.

New Releases, Updates and Changes
Checkout and bookmark the Updates and Changes pages for all the latest books, lessons, songs, listings and site goodies.
Visit the changes pages for the latest. With over TOTAL_PAGE pages of content on this site, it can get a little hard to track just what I have available, new, or updated. It's even hard for me to keep up. I have to search before I add new material.
Here is what Peter Rhee said about my (Curt Sheller) books.
"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
Thanks for visiting and checking out my site!
Content is always being added and updated. So check-in often. Thanks, Curt
P.S. You may think from the look of it that Curt Sheller Publications is a slick, profitable business, but it's actually not (maybe a car payment a month, cheap car). I spend a lot and time money creating the content, lessons and books for this site (a labor of love), so if you dig my content and want to see more of it. I could use your help by spreading the word and maybe buying a book or two if you haven't already, to help defray the cost of running the site. Thanks in advance for your help. This is a labor of love and I'd do it even if I didn't make a lot of money, hey I don't!

If I'm not teaching, I'm working on this site and new lessons, books and goodies.
