Hi rich...

I assume you are speaking of full-fledged TAB and not a lead line in notation with chords over the top.

As a teacher, TAB always provides a source of 'interesting adventures' and exercises in ear training when I make students compare the TAB of something they've picked up on their own, to the recording they are comparing it to.

Valid reasons TAB varies...

• Artists don't play their own arrangements of their own songs note-for-note a lot of the time, thus making the TAB 'wrong'.
• TAB provided by a major player (Al Petteway or Pete Huttlinger for example) will be pretty close.

Fan produced TAB are up for grabs, often full of errors...
