CBG Tabs

So you built your CBG and now you need something to play on it, right? Well, if you're not completely musically inclined or can't read traditional music, tabs are your answer. If you're like me, you read tabs and sometimes make them. Paste'em here.

Remember...

Tabs here is as a learning tool -- NOT for profit.

I'll also upload some blank tab sheets. Just let me know what you think and if I need to add anything.

Amazing Grace--3 string slide guitar.PDF

Amazing Grace--3 string.mp3

New here. Looking for groups that are still alive...

Is this the sort of "tabs" you're looking for? If so, what tunings are useful. (This is "open E" but DAd and DGb are also possible.)

NOTE: The mp3 file is computer generated--not very realistic, but you can hear how the notes sound when played by a machine.

Feedback appreciated...
