hey, im sure this has been posted before and if it has, sorry and could someone please give me the link, but anyways, how do you read guitar tabs? i understand how the numbers work 1 for first fret and so on, but what about everything else, squiggly lines, letters such as r, b, h, arrows, etc. could someone please tell me what all that means? thanks
