@telent thanks! It was messing me up because the tabs I found started off with 4 lines of chords, and it took a while to realize that they were just strummed and the actual tab notation started after that. I guess four lines would be a bass guitar, lol. The main struggle now will be looking up the terms like pull off, hammer on, etc that I used in guitar hero and modelling those in GarageBand's editor
@rubah the horizontal lines are strings as viewed by the player (highest pitched string is top line on pagr) and the numbers are where you fret before plucking the string
