What Is Tab? By Kim Celinder Tab is short for tablature, a notational system used to give more detailed information as to where the notes should be played on the fretboard than traditional music notation can. Tab appears underneath conventional music notation as six horizontal lines that represent the six strings of the guitar, from the sixth (thick) string at the bottom to the first (thin) string at the top. On these six lines, numbers represent the required frets. For example, an A note on the 2nd fret, third string, will be shown as a number '2' written on the third line down on the tab chart. Likewise, if the first string is to be played unfretted, '0' will be written on the highest string.
