Are they a help or obstacle
compared to sheet music?
What about
M.A.M.I. Musical Scale Atlases?
- Guitar chord charts can be a great
tool for guitarists who do not read music.
- Tabulature is also used to learn tunes while using a less complex system
- than is provided by the traditional
"staff and notes" sheet music format.
-
- Drawbacks to guitar chord charts and tabs are that they do not fully address musical
- note
duration as sheet music does.
"Tab" clearly lacks this feature, and are often
distained
-
by formally
trained guitarists, instructors and musicians for this reason.
-
- Sight-reading is a great skill, and
accurate for learning and
communicating ideas.
- Tabs are acceptable if the ambition is to
"play music right now" by simplifying
-
learning using a non-traditional method.
-
- Guitarists must realize that tabulature and sight-reading
both have
advantages and disadvantages to
- be considered when
choosing the methods and resources that form the basis of their education.

- Disadvantages:
Compromises rhythmic representation of tunes and limited selections. Can stifle
development.

Sheet
Music
- Disadvantages:

creativity.
- Advantages: Broad

charts, tabs or
sheet music, try the text that can provide
- a major boost to your
studies, especially concerning the areas of improvisation and composition.
-

instructors are using M.A.M.I. to gain an advantage and are using it with
