The best tabs in the world
We’ve put a lot of thought into what we can do to make our tabs the best in the world. Every Video Lesson or tab in the magazine now features a double-page spread on the story behind the song’s writing, recording and inception.

Video lessons online
You asked, we listened. The cover disc is now in audio CD format, so you can play the songs anywhere. Video Lessons are now hosted online through www.totalguitar.co.uk/video, but you’ll have to buy the mag to get the most out of them...

Sound Advice...
Each tab and Video Lesson also includes a page of ‘Sound Advice’ demonstrating how you can get the sound on any setup, as well as chord diagrams and related scales, helping you to understand the theory behind the tunes. Trickier bits feature a ‘Technique Focus’ explaining the best way to nail the part.
