Guitar tab

Guitar tab is a series of horizontal lines forming a staff not unlike standard music notation. Each line represents one of the instrument's strings so standard guitar tab has a six-line staff and bass guitar tab has four lines. The top line of the tablature represents the highest pitched string of the guitar. These examples are tagged with letters on the left showing the string names, with a lower-case "e" for the high E string. Tab lines may be numbered 1-6 instead, representing standard string numbering, where "1" is the high E string, "2" is the B string. The numbers that are written on the lines denote the fret used to obtain the desired pitch. For example, the number 3 written on the top line of the staff indicates that the player should press down at the third fret on the high E (first string). Number 0 denotes the nut - that is, an open string. For chords, a letter above or below the tab staff denotes the root note of the chord. The chords E, F, and G are shown.

e|---0---1---3---

A|---2---3---2---
