A couple of times my guitar teacher reminded me that today we "new generation" we are thrown into a world where information technology has gradually brought into contact with all things, musically, he even dreamed .. . The lessons of the great masters were often difficult to find on VHS and, in addition to the fact that listening to music and connect with other musicians was limited by ads paper (no computer!) And only meeting in special music schools, conservatories. .. Well, now, the material that we find on the web is almost unlimited and ranges from simple tabulation of Knockin on Heaven's Door to entire video course on how to learn poses and look rock star Pete Townshend. The purpose of today's lesson is to learn to read the "outs" (powerful tools that replace nearly all the musical interpretation of the guitarist) and learn some general notions.
The printouts, you will find more often with the diminutive "tab, are writings consist of six horizontal lines representing the strings and numbers, identifying key instead, on its rope, that we should press. The topmost line is the first guitar string, that is the thinnest string (called "I sing"). The second line represents the second highest guitar string, and so on. Here's an example: --------------------------------------------
---- \u0026lt;----- first guitar string (the thinnest)
------------------------------- ----------------- \u0026lt;----- second guitar string
------------------- \u0026lt;----- ----------------------------- third guitar string
------- ----------------------------------------- \u0026lt;----- fourth guitar string
--------------------------------------------- --- \u0026lt;----- fifth string guitar
--------------------------------- --------------- \u0026lt;----- sixth guitar string (the thickest)
Even better, if we read the number "0" above any of these lines, it means that we simply have to pick (or pinch a finger of his right hand) the string represented by that line.
For example, in the next case, we pick or pluck with a finger of his right hand the third string, empty
----------------------
---------------------------- ------ ------------ 0 - ------------- ----------------------------
--- ------------------------- ------------------------
----
It 'also true that instead of the "0" I could put any other number and go to play that n button on that rope represented.
If the numbers are aligned vertically, which means we're going to play two or more strings, harmonies and arrangements that may be. The strings in this case to be fingered by placing one or more fingers of his left hand on the guitar (neck) and be played with all of them simultaneously, or giving a strum with a pick (if descending downward or upward if toward us) or by plucking them by using multiple fingers of his right hand. An example is the agreement of "C major" = "0 1 0 2 3" (although for now it does not matter to understand the meaning of his musical meaning) that at this point we can go get our guitar
- -------- 0 ----------------
---------------- ---------- 1 ---------- 0 -----------
2 ---------------- ----- ---------- ----- ---------- 3
--------------------------- -----------
An important but must be open and closing parentheses the international notation: our typical Italian notes have different names in virtually all the world and by convention we use the English ones:
A = LA, B = YES, C = DO D = RE E = MI, F = FA G = SOL
This is not enough to know how to read tab: each different technique (eg, "hammer on", "pull off", "slide", "bending "...) has indeed associated a letter that allows the reading (sorry the pun) in the tab. This will probably be subject to subsequent lessons and in any case it is often difficult to understand on a purely theoretical, needing at least visual media.
If you prefer probably loosen up a bit 'hands and learn to play the song of the sun, or perhaps all agreements EXISTING Master of Puppets, but my advice is to practice first on banal exercises (such as this example) : with the use of the plectrum ( see picture left) or with the help of only the index and middle fingers.
As for the instrument approach with a few small info can be found here (apart from the "Settings", which is still very subjective as you want).
you copy it in a video link I would not flawless, but that sums up some things that I said above the tab and make them perhaps more practical: how to read diagrams and tablature .
have any questions or advice I'm available.
