I'll make a blog post on reading tab, it's simple once you know how, but someone's gotta explain it to you, so I'll try. It's not the first time I've been asked, so I'll do some 'splainin.

Thank you for putting so much effort. I am a newbie. Where can I get an explanation of Tabs. I know what the numbers mean. In the first line does 0 above 0 mean that they are played as one and that 2 is played immediately after. What does the "bridge joining 0/0 and 2 mean? I am only interested in the first line at this stage. I have tried to "Tab" some Australian fork songs at this stage as well as Amazing Grace (don't we all)

.

 

Thank you

PK, I'm just starting to use this practice scheme, instead of just random scales. It's not as easy as it looks, as I'm focusing on alternating picking fingers, so it kinda screws me up a bit, but that's why I'm separating practice from playing, so I can work on weak spots and eliminate bad habits. I chose the full major scale because by learning it and drilling it into my head, I can easily modify it into minor, pentatonics and blues scales. This is the first truly organized written approach I'm doing, and I expect to do others every few weeks as I feel the need to work on things.

That's good stuff! Especially the sixes at the end there, great work.
I recommend you take a look at shaving it down to maj penta for a while...
Cos that makes a real convenient 'Lego brick'.. Sure you can drop that iv and vii back in and be where you are now.. Or you can drop the seven and go mixo or raise the four and write another groenig theme... ;)
