    Hmm, I’m not sure I’m following. Every note for that melody is played in position one, never moving beyond fret 3. So each finger has its own assigned fret.

    0 = open
    1 = index
    2 = middle
    3 = ring

    Am I misunderstanding your ?

    Hi Alousia, those were made using the old version of Guitar Pro. Formating of tabs were slightly different using the old version, which may explain the difference you’ve noticed. Unfortunately, I can not find a feature to edit the number of lines per page, only bars per line.

    An idea would be to print the tabs on a sheet larger than 8×11 (I believe that’s the standard size). You can set a printer’s setting to fill the page, which would expand the size of the bars. Perhaps a specialty print shop has such a printer.

    Thx for the suggestions! So for number one, that is already built in, you can find the search bar on the forum homepage, above “Introduce Yourself”.

    2) I don’t believe this is possible. This forum is run using bbpress, which unfortunately, is pretty bare bones. Other forums you may have used have some really cool features that I hope they integrate in the future. But, I can double check.

    Yes, but there should be an F over sunshine (same line). I’ll ask Katie to double check πŸ™‚ Thx for pointing it out.

    Becky is correct. I’d double check the lesson to see what Katie mentioned for that chord. But, it’s really just stylistic. So up to you if you want to accent the strum, arp., pluck, etc.

    Sorry! The upload feature is primarily for photos. You will have to self host them, or you can upload to a site like, https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/.

    Welcome, David! Stoked to hear that the tunes on here motivated you, that’s so awesome! You can definitely share what you are working on in this forum. I’d highly encourage you to check out our reading course. That’s going to be one of the best ways for you to improve upon your notation skills.

    And buy this book! It’s amazing for learning notation.

    hmm that’s kind of a conflicting statement. The melody will not always be diatonic to the chord. In other words, it’s not always a note that is in the chord (harmony) being played at the time.

    Lead sheet is good for chord melody writing, but it’s bare bones. You should also consider what other instruments are playing too.

    It should be fine. Most arr. on that site are for piano. So LS simplifies it.

    It simplifies it to just the main melody with chords above it πŸ™‚

    Hi Alouisa, thanks for the feedback. I don’t believe it’s possible to format that, but I will look into it. πŸ™‚

    For those who missed it, EP004 is LIVE!

    Recap: We are usually taught a specific fingering to use when fretting chords; but depending on the context of the music (i.e. transitioning from one chord to the next), the standard fingering may not be the most efficient to use.

    So how do we determine the correct fingering? That’s what we’ll be answering in this lesson.
