Frequently Asked Questions

ORDERING PROCESS

How do I place an order?
Simply click the "Add To Cart" links for as many songs as you'd like to purchase. When you do, you'll see a gray bar appear at the top of your screen which will enable you to check out when you're ready. You may continue to shop and add tabs until you're ready to check out. Once you do, you'll receive an email with a link to a page on our site where you can download your files. It's easy!

What about the free songs?
It's pretty much the same thing, and there's no purchase necessary. Just click the "Add To Cart" links, then check out by clicking the link in the gray bar that will appear at the top of the page. Please note that if you choose to order only free songs, you'll be asked to provide your email address so we can send you a link to download your files - including the MP3s that are included. 

How many free songs can I get at once?
As many as you like! And you can follow us on Twitter or Facebook to find out when new songs are added!

Can I order free and non-free songs at the same time?
Yes! Please do. You can mix and match as you'd like. 

Can I just order free songs without buying anything?
Absolutely! The free songs are yours, there's no purchase necessary. We hope they help you discover emerging artists you may not have heard before. If you like 'em, spread the word!

Hey, I can't open the PDF files I downloaded.
You'll need to get the free Adobe Reader.

What payment options are there?
We accept payment exclusively via PayPal, but you don't need to have a PayPal account. After you enter your PayPal or credit card information on PayPal.com, you'll be returned to Abatab.com to print your receipt. 

What is Abatab.com's privacy policy?
We never share your personal information, including email address, with anyone.

I didn't receive the email with the link to my tabs!
If you didn't specify an email address during the ordering process, the link was sent to the email address associated with your PayPal account. If you have further difficulties, please send us an email via the 'Contact' link in the footer and we'll take care of you pronto!

 

MUSIC-RELATED THINGS

What if I don't know how to read tab or music notation?
We've got you covered. A link to download the free Abatab Notation Guide PDF is provided each time you download a tab from our site. It should answer most of your questions, but feel free to email jeff@abatab.com to ask anything further. We're here to help.

WHAT THE #^#%@?!?!?

How do you pronounce "Abatab"?
Ab-ah-tab. (And it's easy to type, too. One hand!)

What does \"Abatab\" mean anyway?
Well, it\\\'s a meaningful (we think) take on a particular music-related word. Tell us the word and we\\\'ll send you one free tab download of your choice from our site (songbooks excluded). -----> abatab@abatab.com
