Thread Name: Guitar - Learning by Tab
Subject: RE: Guitar - Learning by Tab
When I write tab and post it on my website, I have two lines which run parallel with each other. The top line shows the arrangement in Standard Notation, and the lower line shows the tab with the chords underneath it. Now - some SN readers find that the tabs get in the way, and some tab readers can't cope with the SN. Personally, I think that both can complement each other, with the music showing the timing, melody line, etc., in a very clear and visual way - and with the tab showing the strings to be played. I'm aware that SN can also do the latter.

As Wyrdolafr says, it's different strokes...
