No, tabs aren't specific to guitar type. These tabs arent really the ones real music tabs that are used and tought in schools. these are the easy versions made up by rockers who didnt know the music theory.

Anyway so the only problem with tabs is that it doesnt tell you how to strum. so even with tabs it takes you along time becfore you figure out the song.

Thanks Alot Bros !! I have recently started learning guitar from my friendz younger brother. He's a lead guitarist of Irtaash (Farooq). an excellent GUITARIST. anyways ...this article is extremely helpful to me. certainly appreciate if sumbuddy could provide with some more like this. Thanks in advance

Yaar rizaaj bhai, My guitar is buzzing between the 11 and 13th frets. Its a Fender Acoustic. It seems as if the fretboard is caving in. What do you suggest?

I have a question...Those numbers on the strings....do they represent the fret no... I mean if it says |E-----2-------| does it mean that play the 2nd fret on the E String or play E string two times?? please I am really confused

@Paqui.. as far as the tabs are concerned they tell you what to play, but not how to play it. so its definately not gonna tell you whether its acoustic or electric. but if the tuning is the same on both (acoustic and electric) you can play it on both.

@obaidkazmi.. it surely means that play the 2nd fret on E string and not twice

@maverick.. it's not a big problem just try to hold a little bit behind the fret link when in that area. basically it shud be held that way all over the fretboard.

um...what if you are playing the violin...can these tabs be used for that? you see, the violin only has four strings.....

can some tell me that when in a guitar tab something like this --C(032010)-- is posted, what does it refer to?

awww .... i dOnnO hOw tO spell em ...

its very nice work......................

Not always, You can never be sure. But yes, Sometimes you can see in the tabs, if it contains alot of QUICK notes, and alot of Vibratos and shreading then its def. a elctric guitar. And also if the notes are being played at a very high frest say about 17-20 ............Cuz most acoustic guitars have fret board till 16.

Plus if the chords used are power chords, its very likely being being played on a electric guitar!

Hope that helps.
