once you've downloaded the guitar pro file you want to learn you can edit the file to just see the standard notation.

Just select View > Hide Tablature. After that you've basically got sheet music (albeit sometimes oddly notated) that will play back to you. The tablature can be nice just to see where another player would be playing a certain line. Once I learn a song I like to turn it on and look through to get different ideas about where I can be playing.

First post please be gentle.

Just starting out on learning bass (39 late starter) Bruce Foxton has inspired me.

Ive down loaded the bass tabs for guitar pro and will have a go on them but someone mentioned ebay.
Just had a look and found This is it any good has anyone tried it?

Thanks in advance.

Si

I've not seen that program. The riff and lick books I've seen are targeted at the Intermediate player. Beginner resources work through beginner aspects - how to hold and play the bass, basic music theory, timing notes, understanding keys, chords, triads, arpeggio's, scales/modes etc etc. The licks and riffs in the books I've seen are all built from those basics...

So, I'd recommend at least making sure a program you are looking at covers those basics as well, if you don't have a good grasp of them already.

In my self taught and theory noob opinion anyway

Thats an awful waste of time, and bandwidth, when someone offers to just plonk an older dump file of all GTPro tabs on your desktop.
