Note: (The HOTSTRINGS courses don’t contain small asci Tabs or Midi files because the tutorial stuff are compressed although we make sure it’s of the best possible quality). In addition, we only use Audiofiles with real guitars! For this reason the total size of the files for the books is something between 35 -60 MB.
So i t’s OK for you to use a fast internet connection to download the books.
Alternatively you can also transfer the download from another PC and then copy the data files into the subfile „Books“ in Hotstrings.
