About Tony
Tony Clout transcribes all of Tabman’s guitar tabs and bass tabs. They are world-famous for their accuracy and help you to sound like the originals. Tabman tabs have been around for over 25 years and they annotate exactly which notes to play as well as how to play them so that you can create your own accurate performance. Tabman tabs combine music and chords and are each a complete guitar lesson.
If you want to play Apache Foot Tapper, Kontiki etc. and sound like Hank Marvin this is where to find the most accurate transcribed tabs.
We produce the tabs for the popular Shadows Workout series by Ian McCutcheon and tabs for classic guitar instrumentals by The Shadows, Jet Harris, The Ventures, Duane Eddy, and The Hunters. New tabs are added frequently.
We also produce tabs for Dave Robinson’s “Lead” series, Ernie Lamprell’s “Strat Trax,” Roger Allcock’s “Backin’” series, Lenny Clerwall and Warren Bennett’s “The Vibratos” (The Ghost of Old Compton Street, Cappuccino Kid, etc.).
