How to read Guitar Tablature

Sight-reading of guitar tablature is extremely easy, unlike standard notation, the tablature straight away tells you which fretboard to press and which string to play. The disadvantage of only learning guitar tablature is one will become a theory dummy even after so many years playing guitar, but anyway, learning guitar tablature is a must to learn playing guitar. We try to play all the songs, then later we will look into the theory.

Let's start:
Guitar tablature is also called as "6 string score", as it already have 6 lines, and each line represent every string of the guitar, the first line represent the first string, second line represent the second sting, and so the following.

So when you see a "2" on the third line of the guitar tablature, it means that you will have to play the second fret of the third string of the guitar.

Understand a guitar tablature is so easy isn't it?
