On this page I published the ultimate table of guitar tab notation and symbols for both graphic tablatures that mostly used in guitar magazines, books, software editors, as well as the ASCII (plain text) tabs that often can be found on web pages.

On July 11, 2015, Marvin Carr, better known by his stage name Capo, a longtime member of Chief Keef's Glo Gang label, was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting in Chicago. After killing Capo, the driver of the vehicle reportedly struck a stroller holding 13-month-old Dillan Harris killing him instantly.
A capo (short for capotasto) is used to change the pitch of open strings. Capos are clipped onto the fretboard with the aid of spring tension or, in some models, elastic tension. To raise the guitar's pitch by one semitone, the player would clip the capo onto the fretboard just below the first fret.
It is one of the most complete references out there, so you might bookmark this page for future use, rarer notation symbols I've put closer to the bottom.
You'll see that in the ASCII column there's a lot of blank cells, it's because ASCII tabs do not have some equivalent notation and symbols, this presumes that you know the song and can figure out additional playing techniques on your own.
Graphic tablatures often include lines of staff notation along with tab lines, that's why I created diverse examples in order to get you used to different tab formats.

Capo
Capo is a music player, but not so much for listening to songs as for analyzing them!
It can slow down a song to differentiate between individual notes, and Capo can automatically generate guitar tablature to make the process as comfortable as possible, because all you can do is take the tabs and learn your favorite song.
For a rhythmic guitar, Capo recognizes and displays chords… By learning your songs seriously, you can place markers where you want to pay more attention and then quickly return to them. Among other things, Capo allows you to add simple effects to a composition and export it to various audio formats.
Capo is the musician's best friend. It lets you slow down your favorite songs, so you can hear the notes and learn how they play. You can also switch between your favorite songs using tabs in record time. The program uses OpenCL spectrogram of instant display! App cleaner pro 4 5.
The application is primarily positioned to work with music from the iTunes library, but there is nothing to stop you from using any other tracks in any folder on Mac's hard drive. Each time you start Capo, you will be shown a welcome screen that explains the main features of the program. Moreover, the description of each function is supported by a short screencast, which can be viewed without leaving the application. Buttons at the bottom of the window allow you to open a music track from any folder on your hard drive or select one of those that has already been opened in the program.
The same options for opening music files are available in the File section of the program menu, so after you have familiarized yourself with the basic features of the application and viewed all the screenshots, you can disable the display of the welcome window by removing the checkmark from the Show on Launch item. After that an unusually simple window will be displayed at the start:
Once you drag and drop the track from the iTunes library to this window, it will be immediately replaced by the main window, where all the work will be done.
Features:
- Detect, and enter chords
- Pitch adjustment
- Mark song sections
- Loop at slower speeds
- Export Capo-adjusted music
- Basic effects available
