I saw a Metallica tab book in a local music shop a few weeks ago. Would you say it is worth buying or should I just stick to MX tabs ?

[QUOTE=metal guitar]I have:
KEA
MOP
Black album
I have found them to be very accurate, more accurate then mx or other internet tabs.

[QUOTE=metal guitar]Our rhythm guitarist got the KEA tab book, he has not complaints about that. I photocopied some of the book, and everything I saw was fine, so good tab book aswell.[/QUOTE]

Well tell me... how is the Blackened main riff ( the one just after the backwards intro) ?

I might have to look into getting some tab books then.
I'm only a beginner so I suppose it doesn't matter that much right now as I can't even do most of what will be in the books anyway but with a bit of practice....ah who am I kidding.

I saw a beginners book the other day, with simplified version of Enter Sandman, Nothing Else, Fade to Black, Unforgiven and One... pretty good for learning... it had a CD with backing tracks too...

man, don't give up like that. You could be good one day, and if you give up, you'll never know! You have to put in a lot of hard work man, but it will pay off for sure.

By the way, sick avatar, I have a poster of that on my wall :p

i just bought some kind of monster,i love it,it was also the last copy in my city,san jose.

Tis good...

I didn't find it all that interesting. Imo

I liked it. But now i'm going to go watch Live Sh*t and eat girl scout cookies (man those things are good)

[QUOTE=bassplayer5540]well if he only can name master of pupets,fade to black, the one, enter sandman and the unforgiven hes a poser those are the songs that are most famous if u like metallica you can name more tahn that[/QUOTE]

Unforgiven
Master of Puppets
Fade to Black
Enter Sandman

Am I a poser? Am I? AM I?!

[QUOTE=vashts80]The One? WTF? It's "One".

if you like anything besides only enter sandman your not a poser

[QUOTE=Whale and Wasp]i personally think that website sucks...there are sites with a TON of more information on metallica than it ([url]www.metallicaworld.co.uk[/url])

i think that metallica.com would be really kickass if the actual band themselves made it[/QUOTE]
u'd be surprised. even wikepedia (or something) kicks ***. it covers practically anything i can think of about metallica/their music/albums/events etc

[QUOTE=gocaps99]if you like anything besides only enter sandman your not a poser[/QUOTE]
not really true... as a matter of fact not true at all

[QUOTE=metal_milita]not really true... as a matter of fact not true at all[/QUOTE]

you can like enter sandman, but if its the only thing you like your hardly a metallica fan

How can you be a poser by liking a song? I mean sure I can agree that if you like just one metallica song, you're not really a fan, but poser? Come on. It's not like Im going on national TV announcing that I like enter sandman. But I do like most of metallica's songs though.

i really dont consider people posers if they like enter sandman or king nothing.but if they say they know everything about metallica and they dont then their a poser.but if they just like one song from them they probly havent heard anything else.i dont like to put people in groups,i hang out with anyone if their cool :thumb:

But it's enter sandman, there biggest but far from best hit. That's what i mean. if the ONLY song you've heard is enter sandman, i don't think you can call yourself a fan. It's like saying your a zeppelin fan but only ever hearing stairway.

I was a Zeppelin fan for a while, and hadn't listened to stairway....

just a little fun fact for you all

[QUOTE=Rasta Rockerstat3]I was a Zeppelin fan for a while, and hadn't listened to stairway....

just a little fun fact for you all[/QUOTE]

but thats what i mean. you cannot call yourself a zeppelin [I]fan[/I] if all you have heard is stairway. if you've heard more and dont like it then your hardly a fan

There are a lot of posers in life (i may be one on certain issues) i think it gets annoying to have people tell you that your wrong about something and they have no clue what they are talking about

if i could rep you i would/ good post

[QUOTE=MXican]Yup, official tablature books > tab forums[/QUOTE]

Most of those books, or the ones ive seen arent actually "official". They are just really accurate, but they arent actually puut out by the band.

thanks anyways

The ones with the full page cover like the album are good, and look on the back

i've never used an official tab book, i just get them off the web

I learned Creeping Death today. It's not as hard as I was expecting.

i dont know how to read drum tabs :upset: i just learn by ear

Drum tabs are awful. Sheet music is far superior. Learning to read music is key.
