If we are playing in 44 time (like we usually are), a whole note would take up one entire measure. It is a great tool for beginners to learn some songs and licks since it shows exactly what to do. As a teacher I focus my students on learning to understand the instrument, what exactly they are doing, and to use their ear, but banjo tab does help communicate many of these ideas quickly and easily. It is a tool to learning that can be very helpful, but should not be used solely on its own. It is however, a very important tool to understand as 99 of banjo music is written in tablature form. You can find tablature for almost any fretted stringed instrument. Banjos of all kinds use tab, it doesnt matter if you are playing a tenor banjo, plectrum banjo, 5 string banjo, 6 string banjo, or banjo uke - tablature will work for all of these. There are slight differences though when reading tablature for different instruments. There are a group of horizontal lines that go all the way across the page. When playing a 5 string banjo you would see a group of 5 lines. The 1st string (the one closest to the floor when you are holding your banjo in proper playing position) will be on the top. The highest number string (the one closest to you when you are holding your banjo in proper playing position) - 4 on a 4 string banjo, 5 on a 5 string banjo, 6 on a 6 string banjo, etc. These lines would appear at the very beginning, the end, and spread evenly throughout the page. The horizontal line that the number is on will tell you what string we are talking about. ![]() The second note would be the open B string (the 2nd string), and the 3rd note would be the open 5th string. This is on the middle line which in turn represents the 3rd string. In my opinion, the clearest banjo tabs use the same rhythmic symbols as standard musical notation. This is called the time signature and is shown at the very beginning of the tab. The top number tells us how many beats there are per measure and the bottom number tells us the note value that represents one beat. In this case we would have 4 beats per measure (the top number) and each beat is equal to a quarter note (the bottom number). If the bottom number was an 8, then each beat would be equal to an eighth note. If it had a 2 as the bottom note, each beat would be equal to a half note. Is the note on the tab a quarter note, an eighth note, a half note, a whole note, something else. All of these assume we are playing in a time signature where the bottom number is 4.
