Hi, I saw your question also on the italian list. It's excellent music for 
getting used to playing from normal scores on a certain lute (theorbo, 
baroque, renaissance/archlute) if you download the scores from for example 
the icking archive where they are available for different stringed 
instruments (violin, gamba etc). Create your own tab if necessary from this. 

If you definitely want to purchase something: tree has some editions.
By the way don't make the mistake of buying the tree edition of "lute" suites 
by Bach; it's horrible.
