Layout Notation: 

====== - Section, such as Bridge or solo, closed (after correct number of plays, move to the next section) 
=      - Section, such as Bridge or solo, still active: after correct number of plays, move to next bar. 
x(#)   - Repeat as indicated (x3 indicates repeating the riff twice more, etc.) 

Grid Notation: 

~      - vibrato (bend the string and release rapidly) 
*      - deaden note (stop notes from ringing) 
X      - dead string (Mute string with your fretting hand) 
{}     - pinch harmonic (bring the picking thumb across the string after picking note) 
     - natural harmonic (lightly rest fretting finger on string, then pick) 

/      - slide up (higher in pitch)(2/4 indicates fretting the 2nd fret, then sliding to the 4th without 
                a 2nd pick-stroke) 
\      - slide down (lower in pitch)(4/2 indicates fretting the 4th fret, then sliding to the 2nd without 
                a 2nd pick-stroke) 
b      - bend ('16b' would indicate bending the 16th fret) 
r      - release bend ('16br' would indicate bending the 16th fret up, then releasing back to neutral position) 
br     - bend, then release 
brp    - bend, release, then pull; usually in a fluid motion 
h      - hammer-on to indicated fret (0h2 indicates picking open string, then fretting the 2nd fret without 
                a second pick-stroke) 
p      - pull-off to indicated fret (12p10 indicates picking the twelfth fret, then lifting your finger to 
                a pre-fretted 10th fret without a second pickstroke) 
pb     - pre-bend, in some cases signifies a previous bend being held (bend the string before picking) 
pbr    - pre-bend release (bend the string before picking, then release string after picking) 
T      - Tap note with pick or a picking hand finger, usually in a quick hammer-on/pull-off section 
TR     - trill (10TR12 would indicate to hammer and pull continually between the two specified notes) 
trm    - tremolo pick (pick very rapidly) 


Above Grid Notation: 

.      - palm mute (mute the strings with your picking hand while picking) 
\/     - use tremolo bar ('whammy' bar)(either raise or lower the pitch dramatically) 
^      - Upstroke (use an up pick-stroke)
