Usually, I would recommend the "0.75x" speed. ♫ HOW TO READ GUITAR TABS ♫ The guitar tablature has six lines. Each one represents a string of the guitar (the upper line represents the first string "e" and the bottom line represents the sixth string "E"). The numbers represent the FRETS. If there is a number "5" on the upper line, you will play the fifth fret in the first string (e). If there is a number "0" on the second line (from up to down), you will play the second string (B) without hitting any fret (B open string). Frequently, I add some guitar solo techniques like hammer-ons, pull-offs and slides to the melody so it can sound closer to the original vocals: h = hammer-on; p = pull-off; / (sl.) = slide.
