Playing Guide The songs in this George Benson collection include the vocal line, lyrics, chords, second guitar part, and transcribed guitar solo. In addition, a line of tablature is given directly below the notated guitar part to indicate where the notes are to be played. In the tablature example below, each line represents a single string beginning with the top line 1 st string down to the bottom line 6th string. Numbers placed on the lines give the fret number.

HIGH E l

3RD STRING, 2ND FRET

Notation There are several types of symbols found in the solos and second guitar parts which rep- resent various playing techniques. The following is an explanation of their meaning.

Bend-A B above a note means that a lower note is fretted and bent up to the notated pitch. Place your finger on the fret indicated by the circled number in the TAB line. Bend up to the pitch of the connected number to the right.

Example: play 7th fret, 3rd string Dl bend up to E

Hammer on and pull off-The slur mark is used to indicate a hammer on or pull off.

Example: play 8th fret, 2nd string G, hammer on to 10th fret, 2nd string A

Example: play 8th fret, 3rd string Eb, pull off to 7th fret D, then to 5th fret C

Slide-There are four possible slides. The type of slide depends on the location and di- rection of the line to the notehead. Slide up to the note or down to the note by one fret when the line preceeds the note. A line following the note indicates a slide up or down after the note has been played.

Example: play 1 1 th fret, 2nd string A # and slide down to 10th fret A

Example: play 9th fret, 2nd string Ab and slide up to 10th fret A

The slide after a note has been played does not end on a specific pitch. Begin lifting your finger after sliding two frets so that the string is eventually muted.

Example: play 12th fret, 3rd string G and slide up

Example: play 12th fret, 3rd string G and slide down

Slide to a specific note - A line connecting two notes indicates a slide from the first to the second note.

Example: play 8th fret, 2nd string G and slide up to 10th fret A

Example: play 1 0th fret, 1 st string D and slide down to 8th fret C
