= - Section, such as Bridge or solo, still active: after correct number of plays, move to next bar.
x(#) - Repeat as indicated (x3 indicates repeating the riff twice more, etc.)
Grid Notation:
~ - vibrato (bend the string and release rapidly)
* - deaden note (stop notes from ringing)
X - dead string (Mute string with your fretting hand)
{} - pinch harmonic (bring the picking thumb across the string after picking note)
- natural harmonic (lightly rest fretting finger on string, then pick)
/ - slide up (higher in pitch)(2/4 indicates fretting the 2nd fret, then sliding to the 4th without
a 2nd pick-stroke)
\ - slide down (lower in pitch)(4/2 indicates fretting the 4th fret, then sliding to the 2nd without
a 2nd pick-stroke)
b - bend ("16b" would indicate bending the 16th fret)
r - release bend ("16br" would indicate bending the 16th fret up, then releasing back to neutral position)
br - bend, then release
brp - bend, release, then pull; usually in a fluid motion
h - hammer-on to indicated fret (0h2 indicates picking open string, then fretting the 2nd fret without
a second pick-stroke)
p - pull-off to indicated fret (12p10 indicates picking the twelfth fret, then lifting your finger to
a pre-fretted 10th fret without a second pickstroke)
pb - pre-bend, in some cases signifies a previous bend being held (bend the string before picking)
pbr - pre-bend release (bend the string before picking, then release string after picking)
T - Tap note with pick or a picking hand finger, usually in a quick hammer-on/pull-off section
TR - trill (10TR12 would indicate to hammer and pull continually between the two specified notes)
trm - tremolo pick (pick very rapidly)
Above Grid Notation:
. - palm mute (mute the strings with your picking hand while picking)
\/ - use tremolo bar ("whammy" bar)(either raise or lower the pitch dramatically)
^ - Upstroke (use an up pick-stroke)
