Music Notation/Tablature combination...

Post by Johnne Lee Ables »

I saw Doug Bs book and I like that format...

Since I can't read tab, Doug's is a great approach. (Of course it will be a lot easier once I learn were and how you obtain all the notes on a PSG.)

Who else has the kind of notation/tab set-up that Doug has?

I'm planning to order both his "35" and "60" books, but I'd like to have several opitons.

Thanks,

Hey David,

I'm gonna' go take a look at Doug J's material right now. I hope I can find a sample. Thanks so much, David.

Hey Aki,

Do you know which of Scotty's material uses notation (and/or notation and tab). He has a gazzilion lessons. The Mel Bay C6th Non-Pedal Book use both. If you know of others I'd be grateful.

Maybe I should just email Scotty for information, huh?

Thanks, Aki!

Thanks to you both. Much appreciated.

Here's a link to a Quick exercise I notated, based on a Russ Weaver post.

There's even a sound clip.

At least "Deluxe pedal steel guitar method" and "Anthology of pedal steel guitar" uses them. Both are Mel Bay books.

Buck Reid's tabs are in standard notation/tablature format. If you listen to his CD called "A Work In Progress" you would most likely find something which would be of great interest.

Thanks Johnne Lee, "60" is the only one I have now... "35" is no longer available.

A lot steel players like having the notes for the timing. Tab with notation is the best IMHO.

Thanks, Doug!! I like the notation because I don't know tab, and I am hoping the standard notation will help figure out what the tab means. I can read decently if I'm not expected to do so at tempo. I just need to figure out where the notes are on a PSG.

Thanks,
