4 string tab?
I just received an AMAZING 4-string CBG built by Jon Pruett (http://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/JonPruett?xg_source=activity) and have been plunking around with it for a few days. I've done a few 6-string lessons years ago, and I have it tuned to DGBE to allow me to use some of the old scales and stuff that I know.
But what now? Any leads on where to find decent 4 string tabs, maybe for other instruments, that I can tweak? I'm also really interested in learning various blues riffs and then being able to improvise a song.
Where do I go next?

I believe that baritone ukulele is tuned DGBE, and there are lots of tabs on the ukulele sites

Yep, you can use baritone uke tabs and chord sheets to find playable music. You can also use baritone uke chord diagrams. 4 string anything tuned dgbe and baritone use uses the same chord structures.
Here is one of my fave sites ..... http://www.alligatorboogaloo.com/uke/
