HB= half-step bend = Strike the note and bend up 1/2 step
WB= whole-step bend = Strike the note and bend up 1 step
(?)= bend and release = Strike the note and bend as indicated, then release back to the original note. Only the first note is struck.
H= hammer on = Strike the first (highest on the fretboard) note with one finger, the sound the higher note (on the same string) with another finger by fretting it without picking.
P= pull-off = Place both fingers on the notes to be sounded. Strike the first note and without picking, pull the finger off to sound the secound (highest on the fretboard) note.
/= slide = Strike note then slide to secound note . or if third note follows secound note then slide back by picking the secound or to go faster then just slide back to first note. (you got that)
P.S sorry if the spacing between the notes are spaced wrong i don't know how to space them correctly so bare with me.
!!Also if you think this tab looks diificult then just read over it carefully and master each section and then put it all together!!
