It's all over the place! I prefer to do a broad search like this instead of searching each and every tab site independently. If you're looking for a specific song, then search the words "guitar tab" plus the name of the song and the artist. For example, <a class="postlink" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=guitar+tab+purple+haze+jimi+hendrix&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a">guitar tab purple haze jimi hendrix</a>. This will give you ALL the locations on the web. Most of the free stuff is posted by amateurs and is frequently incorrect or incomplete. If you can't make sense of a tab, move onto the next until you find something that sounds right. Don't be afraid to pay for the good stuff. A great website to search for complete and accurate guitar tab books and sheet music is <a class="postlink" href="http://musicdispatch.com/">MusicDispatch.com</a>. You can buy and and print individual songs one at a time at <a class="postlink" href="http://www.sheetmusicdirect.us/?affiliate=53200">SheetMusicDirect.us</a>. Don't forget that I give away free tab for some of the songs I reference in my <a class="postlink" href="http://guitar-music-theory.com/">guitar theory book and DVDs</a>. If you're a customer and missed this free guitar tab, then just email me and let me know. New visitors can sign up for a free preview of my book <a class="postlink" href="http://guitar-music-theory.com/fretboard-theory.html">Fretboard Theory</a> and receive, among other things, free guitar tab.

Does great to get the song in your head and you can slow the tempo down to.
