ok.. so i wanna learn how to play tabs.. i already know chords but i can't really figure out how to play tabs... so if you can explain or something?? please.. cuz i really need to learn it!

arigato gozaimasu! :rolleyes:

it's pretty easy to learn how to read tabs. you should already know the strings and the finger placements for chords. it's pretty much the same thing but instead of holding down 3-4 notes you just need to use 1 note.

e
B
G
D
A
E

so when you look at tabs they'll look like this
5---------
-----7----
----------5
-----------
-----------
-----------
something like this but the number is just refering to which fret

search up random tabs x) some have really detailed legends of what all the little abbreviations mean..but theres only a few you need to know anyways since they appear the most

like

3/5 means slide 3 to 5
3h4p3 etccc that stuffs like pick 3 hammer on 4 n pull off to 3 when i first started that sounded so confusing =_= but imagine holding the 3 n then just slamming ur finger on the 4 quickly n let go XD thats about it
3~ is like let the note ring out~ (as that sentence rang out) =D

ive been wondering if ne one here can play john mayer...

ive been working on somethings missing all night and my fingers started bleeding half an hour ago... that song is fast...

oh crap bleeding fingers o_o thats bad @__@ need more callouses!! XD

yah... the string cut between me at the tip of the nail...

OUCH!! argh ;_; no accidents yet thank god...cold days are the worst when your fingers are frozen =_= they feel like theyd get sliced off any minute if youre not careful

thank you all!!
i'm going to try that :guitar

shoving the guitar strings between your nail and finger??? O.O

lol... eheh i woundnt suggest doing that... and it was my ring finger too! T_T now i have no reach!... playing with a band-aid sucks...
