Hey,
The tab drawn/written on this page is wrong:

http://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=8677&s_id=92&prev_id=8676

The riff sounds really good (thanks David Farmer ;) ) but not only is the picking in the tab less but towards the ending looks like on the wrong strings!

Took me quite some time to figure it our but this is what i think it is:
E |---------------15-----------------|
B |-----------15------15-------------|
G |--14b(16)---------------15---15--|
D |----------------------------------|
A |----------------------------------|
E |----------------------------------|



maybe a bend on the last one too...
feel free to correct me if i am wrong...i am a beginner :cool: :o

Cheers,
Mag

I think the best thing to do would to to PM / Email the author of the lesson.
The lessons and the forum are two totally different things. Some Instructors check the forum regularly other do not. There is no obligation.
I cant edit other peoples lessons (and if I could I wouldn't) so here is not really the best place to post this.

I can edit all the lessons, and I have been meaning to check this out. I appreciate the post.

On my list of things to do is to go over every single lesson and make sure they are right (this will take a while).

I will check it out in the next day or so.

I went over it, and I thought this was more accurate:

http://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=8677&s_id=92&prev_id=8676

[font=courier]
E |---------------15----------------------|
B |-----------15------15------------------|
G |--14b/(16)---------------\r14--14~~~---|
D |---------------------------------------|
A |---------------------------------------|
E |---------------------------------------|

on every lesson there is a thing called the "info bar" and on the info bar is a button with a "?" on it. click that.

r means release bend
~~~ means vibrato

Cool! Learnt something new today!
I thought the question mark was just to explain the difference between the text/flash tab...but it explains quite a bit more.

I think I know what vibrato means (pressing down the string but moving the hand) am not sure, so will do a search on that.

Thanks,

I think bending into vibrato is very difficult as it is not only technique (like coordination) but also requires quite a lot of strength in your fingers and often this take time to build ! However Rome wasn't built in a day and Im also sure Tom Petty had to practice his chops like everyone else !!!!!

Glad you liked them mate !!

Best of luck !!
