How to read Guitar Tab or Guitar Tablature...


The most useful guitar skill is to tab. Tab appears like this:





e------------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------




The letters up there mean the strings(highest to lowest-e is the
highest and E is the lowest). This is an example of a song:




e-----------------------------------------------
B-----------------------------------------------
G-----------------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------------
A---7-7-10-7-5-3-2------------------------------
E-----------------------------------------------




Knowing that E is the lowest and A is on top of it, it would mean that
A is the second lowest.




e highest
B second highest
G third highest
D third lowest
A second lowest
E lowest




The numbers on A are " 7-7-10-7-5-3-2". Count on the fretboard till
fret seven.


Hit
#7. There is another 7 so hit it. What ever the number is, hit it on
the fretboard(on the correct string). There you go folks!

Still more to come...
