Guitar & bass tab player
See it.Loop it.Play it.
TabShare is a tab player for guitar and bass. A playhead runs through the tab, every note lights up on the fretboard, and the bar you keep missing loops at a speed your hands can follow.
Practice the Signal Fire demo song right in your browser. No account, nothing to install.

ATabs built for human hands
A note is not a fingering.
On a standard-tuned guitar the same pitch can sit in as many as 5 places on the neck. TabShare plans the whole phrase at once — reach, position shifts, tempo — and lets you choose what it optimizes for. Switch the target and watch the same eight notes move to new strings.
Capo
Idiomatic fingering: D4 on G string fret 7, G4 on B string fret 8, A4 on high E string fret 5, B4 on high E string fret 7, E4 on high E string open, G4 on B string fret 8, D5 on high E string fret 10, C5 on high E string fret 8.
Every fingering here was produced by TabShare's fretting search — the code the Create pipeline runs — on the opening phrase of the Signal Fire guitar part in standard tuning. Gold dots show how many places each pitch could go.

312 chord-over-lyric charts from the TabShare songbook, searchable by song, artist or style. Transpose any chart a semitone at a time; tap a chord to see a guitar shape for it.

CBring your own part
Have the isolated part? Create turns it into tab.
Upload a guitar or bass stem, tell TabShare how your instrument is set up, and it runs four stages. A tab only comes out if every note passes the playability check — nothing is dropped or faked to make it fit.
Transcribe
Pitch and timing are detected from your isolated guitar or bass stem.
Humanize
Fretting search gives every note a string and fret, planned across the whole phrase.
Validate
Impossible reaches, string clashes and too-fast shifts stop the tab instead of shipping it.

Before you start
- Do I need an account?
- No. The player, the chord charts and Create all open without signing in.
- What am I hearing in the demo?
- Plucked strings synthesized in your browser from the tab itself — not a recording. Sound only starts when you turn it on.
- Does it work on my phone?
- Yes. The player and chord charts run in mobile browsers; the full player has more room on a laptop.
- Can it tab out any song I upload?
- Not yet. Create needs an isolated guitar or bass stem. Separating a part out of a full mix isn't built.
- What do I get out?
- A tab you can practice in the player. Create results also export as Arrangement JSON and ASCII tab.
