Guitar, Bass & Fretted Music.
Sheet music, songbooks, tab editions, methods and reference for guitar, bass, ukulele, banjo and the entire fretted family — from beginner method through definitive transcriptions of the classics.
From method book
to definitive tab.
Hal Leonard built the modern fretted catalogue. The Hal Leonard Guitar Method has trained more guitarists than any other single book in print, and the publisher has worked directly with the artists themselves to produce note-for-note transcriptions of the recorded canon — Hendrix, Clapton, the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Eagles, John Mayer, the entire popular guitar tradition.
Beyond rock and pop, the imprint covers classical guitar standards, jazz transcription, fingerstyle, bluegrass, country, blues, ukulele, banjo, mandolin, dobro and electric bass. From easy lead sheets and chord charts through to scholarly classical editions and pro-level studio transcriptions.

Authorized
by the artists.
Hal Leonard works under direct license with virtually every major recording artist and estate in the popular catalogue. That distinction matters — it means the tab is the official, artist-approved version, not an internet approximation.
For students and professionals alike: when the engraving has to be right, when the chord voicings need to match the record, when the tuning is non-standard or the time signature shifts mid-bar — the Hal Leonard tab is the source.
