tablatures
Fretted instrument scores
Tablatures are a form of musical notation that shows where to place fingers on an instrument rather than which pitches to play.
Most commonly used for guitar, bass, and other fretted instruments, tablature displays a diagram of strings with numbers indicating which frets to press.
I learned the song from tablatures I found online.
Unlike standard notation, tablatures are instrument-specific and don't require the ability to read traditional sheet music.
