reading tab

Bill Baseman · From: Santa Rosa, California, USA

I have a student model GFI with E9 tuning. I have three pedals and a lkl and a lkr knee levers. When I read tab that indicates a movement on the 4th or 8th strings, for example 5L, I know that it is the fifth fret, but does the "L" mean raise or lower the tone? I assume it means LkL. Thanks in advance.

There is no standard for what LKL or LKR, etc. will do. Therefore, when you see:



1------------------


2------------------


3------------------


4-----5L-----5R----


5------------------


6------------------


7------------------


8------------------


9------------------


10-----------------

it means lower the 4th string in the 5th fret, then raise the 4th string in the 5th fret.
