Is it important to memorize all the notes on the fret board and learn how to read sheet music while playing or does TAB do the job? In the studio is sheet music the go to while writing or is tablature what you get your ideas down onto then put it down in sheet music? I feel so conflicted because it is more comprehensive for me to learn a song in tabs for guitar but during my years playing trumpet in grade school learning music any other way other than sheet music was frowned upon. I guess what I’m trying to ask is do all great guitar players have the ability to pick up sheet music and just start playing without needing tab lmao.
