Tutorial 7: Guitar Tab and Fretted Instruments

Finale offers a variety of features for notation of guitar and other fretted instruments. In this chapter you will learn how to create a score with tablature, edit tab staves, enter bends, slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs, and even enter music into your score using a MIDI guitar. If you do not plan on notating for guitar (or another fretted instrument), feel free to skip ahead to the next chapter.
