One of the first things most beginners do when they want to start learning how to play songs on acoustic guitar is to go online and search for fun easy guitar tabs. Now, there is a good chance you have already discovered a ton of sites offering free guitar tabs, but nothing compares to what you are about to discover below.
You have seen the way most guitar tabs are structured. They look something like this: (This is not a real song. Just a made up tab to illustrate my point)
|-------------10----14----|-------------12----14----| |----14-------------------|----14-------------------| |-------12-11----12----14-|-------12-12----15----11-| |-10----------------------|-12----------------------| |-------------------------|-------------------------| |-------------------------|-------------------------|
Pretty dull, boring and a tad bit confusing if you are an absolute beginner right?
Now what if you had a tool like this:
The name of this tool is called ActionTab and it is one of the best guitar tools online.
I have listed some of their lessons below so that you can get an idea how it works.
