Very well done transcription with careful left hand fingering. I prefer this arrangement over those in C because here you can add a capo at the first fret and play it in the original key while keeping a useful low Eb on the sixth string. Also you may work on it and make few minor changes according to your own preferences and to the Schbler score: anyway this version flows beautifully as it is.The music of J.S. Bach in never easy peasy :) so I rate it intermediate.
