The strings are represented by staves like in normal music notation
and the notes are represented by numbers denoting which fret to hold
the string down on. There may be some extra notation above telling
you how to play each note or how to move from one to the next.
h
- hammer on (Use the left hand
to percussively tap up to the next note without plucking it)
p - pull off (use the
left hand to drag off the string to play the next note without
plucking it)
b - bend string up (use
the left hand to push the string up (or down) to stretch the
string and raise the note)
r - release bend (After
bending the note up - release the stretch back down to the original
note)
/ - slide up (Slide your
left hand finger along the fret board up to a note)
\ - slide down (Slide
your left hand finger along the fret board down to a note)
v - vibrato (sometimes written as ~) |
 |
Method
1 - wobble your left hand finger on a note to alter the pitch slightly
up and down
Method 2 - stretch the string up and down to raise the pitch up and
down
Method 3 - use your tremolo arm to lower and raise the pitch of a
note
t - right hand tap (Use
a finger ,usually you index but your second finger if you are holding
a plectrum, to percussively tap the string against a fret to produce
a note)
x - play 'note' with heavy damping (As
previously described using the fleshly part of your palm to dampen
a note a clip its sustain)
