DMcG is on target-each individual instrument has it's own idiosyncrasies & you really need to consult someone who plays the instrument, & hopefully has some knowledge of Music notation.

anonny--perhaps some Musicians may not be aware of the fact that many professional & amateur Musicians are frequently called upon to use a Music score, which, if incorrect, creates quite some problems for the Musicians. To whom do they turn--the conductor or director? Many church & community band, orchestra, or chorus directors do not have a strong educational background in both instrumental as well as vocal Music. Few professional conductors have any knowledge of what we think of as "traditional" instruments, to include Guitar as well as many others. The Musician is stuck trying to figure out how to play what they can of their portion of the score. This can alter the overall sound of the Musical work.
Often, as a Church Music Director dealing with the all volunteer choir, I've had occasion to use Music which calls for solos by various instruments. I have often had to use a different instrument, & transcribe the score for that instrument.
I also am frequently asked to write out tunes for various "traditional" instruments, as I play several of them. This is terrific for slow jams with beginners, even if they do not read Music, as I provide on each part the tab & chords in addition to the notation. This way, most people can participate in a beginner jam.
