if there's something you've made yourself or just a tab you really like and would recommend others to learn, post it here!

here's one i've made myself.. i'm a bit of a beginner on the guitar though. it sounds nice with a steel stringed acoustic :) like an intro of sorts

Hehe, I haven't bothered writing anything lately. I've just being focusing on technique and learning some tough riffs.

I don't really use tabs anymore, I try to play by ear (don't know that many chords yet)

I play by ear as well, but I have tabbed a lot of our new songs in GuitarPro, if anyone is interested.

Yea I'm not saying tab is bad, it's actually quite good, when I was first starting out it gave me an easy way to play my favorite songs. Then eventually you get used to the fretboard so much that you can start playing by ear. So don't get me wrong tab is great for beginners, I don't want to sound like I'm dissing TAB.

yeah i'm the same about piano, just that i'm very new at the guitar so i like learning things with tabs, it's fast and easy.

i used to have to learn notes and stuff with the piano but now i just play it by ear, usually have a good idea of what scale and key it is etc.

Drop C

Alternate picking fast

C|-3-3-3-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2-2-|-5-5-5-5-7-7-8-8-10-10-10-10-7-7-7-7-|

Shift

I only use the tabs for very complicated solos or if their is a very unique or distinctive chord that is being played, like a common chord with add-ons, quite hard to pick up by ear.

I would have posted complete and correct bass tabs for No Doubt- Spiderwebs, but I can't get my head 'round writing it down. I've got this word document that I print out and write on with pen or whatever when I make tabs, but I can't get the numbers in the document without mucking everything up. So... sorry.

Well depends what you guys want. I could give you some metal riffs or some rhythm riffs or lead licks, so what do you want? I do all, heh.

Wrote this a couple of weeks ago. It's very simple, but has an "exotic" sound that's kind of nice. I was going to write an acoustic part for it at some point but that kind of disappeared. I have a MIDI of it available here (http://eric.hosted.luckz.de/audio/fun_riff.mid). A friend of mine did a bassline, but I accidentally erased the tab he sent me, so the MIDI just has the crappy old bassline I made in there. It really needs more layers in order to really be interesting.

I always improvise tons of stuff, and usually it's a lot better than this thing here, but I never write it down.

Not too fond of constant power chord after power chord.

CrazyHarij
06-11-2006, 06:26 PM
really nice stuff guys. thanks stigmata, i'm really liking your licks too :)

hneaz i tried playing that with the key of C on the A string, it sounds cool.

sea i'm digging the sound of that one! 170 bpm, jesus :o it probably sounds alot different on the electric guitar but i did a more arpeggiating pattern with the notes and it sounds cool.

i really wish i had an electric guitar, i played a crappy squire one with a kustom amp in sound/light (stage stuff) tech class today, but i soo loved playing on it. doing stuff like palm muting and bending, just sounds great. :)

a little barre practice thing i did.. supposed to be played pretty fast, but sounds good with some rubato/pause or slowdown between the bars. it begins a little mellow but modulates to a more happy sound in the last bar.

This next one is the main riff from the third song on our debut album. It's also going to be the first single, as of now.
It's in 6/8 timing. BMP= 127

If you don't get how to play it, let me know and I'll post the Guitar-Pro version of it. I can also do this for everything else I post, so let me know!

Aha yeah Opeth was what instantly sprung to mind when I started writing it, have been listening to alot of Ghost Reveries lately, awesome album. Have some parts that I need to compile, could turn out to be a nice contrasting prog song if I get things in the right places.... we shall see :D

Here's a tab for Sonic The Hedgehog - Emerald Hill Zone I made a while ago, seriously playing video game music is one of the funnest things you can do on guitar, haven't included much tabulature jargon but play it to the music and it should sound about right;

Power chord and barre chords are going to be your best friends for any type of rock. they are quick to play and very efficient. i didn know u played the acoustic guitar. when i say drop C, its on the low E string but the tune is dropped to Drop C (CGCFAD). im glad u are having fun playing the guitar. always using a pick.
