guys Im just getting into the non pedal stuff and i have a old 6 string fender but on the fret board the first fred is 0 then 1.
my question is when i read tabs posted here do i follow the number on the fender fret board or just the natural number first fret 1 then 2 and so on. thanks in advance. also im looking for some tab for c6 material any links would be helpful. Joe from west virgina

| Joe, don't know 'bout that Texanese numbering system,(no guff, now -- I was born & reared there)-- but tab is written with 0 (zero) being an open string. Try the Forum links & go to "Scotty's Music" for a good starting source for C6th lap & whatever. Also, try Ricky Davis' Tab site. There's others that someone else will come up with, I'm sure. BTW, what model Fender you got there?? [This message was edited by John Hanusch on 19 February 2002 at 07:55 PM.] |

Joseph, the nut is always fret 0, the first real fret is fret 1, etc.  |
