Hi again Tan,

First, in case you didn't know, the guitar sounds one octave lower than written. That is done so that you don't have to read (1) two staves or (2) have to read a whole lot of ledger lines.

About your other question, TAB. You didn't give a link or much information. I could make a wild guess that TAB is refering to tablature, the notation system using 6 lines for the strings and letters (or numbers) for the fret positions.

Thanks,

Mike
