i started off in music on the recorder. i did it in the school of music and learned the treble clef for 5 yrs. i didnt like the instrument and gave up and took on bass guitar which i love. i learned it with “tab” instead of the clef and now when i try to read bass clef i get very confused. doh! this has been helpful though because i didnt know which finger placements were which when trying to read bass clef so i’ll work away with my new knowlege. Thanks Casey!!

It can limit you in reading other players music. But after listening to few persons who completed various music courses and have been tought how to read music I discovered they are much slower when it comes to improvising and composing their own movements. Anyway – tabs show some details you can’t find in notes – when speaking about guitar. Everything is useful – one just needs to balance wisely.
