universal tab symbols

save it for friday · 04-14-2007, 01:46 PM

I think that guitar needs official universal tab symbols. Why?

1. Half the time when I look at tabs, they don't always the same symbols and it throws me off and i have to search what they are trying to get across. It bugs me.

2. The world would be a better place if we had set symbols.

3. Guitar tabs would be soooooo much easier to read and understand.

4. No one would have to google search symbols up if they didnt know which one to use.

If there already a system that I don't know about, sry.

I think I might try to come up with a system later tonight.

save it for friday: A universal system would be totally brilliant, especially if it was one where rhythm could be easily read (most tab systems people use doesn't show rhythm or shows it in a very half-assed way)

Spot the communist.... honestly, when have you ever been confused by what a tab means? Especially if you've heard the song in question.
