It's been a great run (22 years!), but all good things must come to an end. It is now TabNabber's turn to say goodbye.

THANK YOU!...To all the tabbers out there that have made this site an amazing resource for aspiring professional amateur musicians. We're curious and excited to see what the new owners bring to TabNabber. But we'll dearly miss this site and all of you, so don't be a stranger! We're currently over at BlueSky and SubStack, follow us for more at: https://bsky.app/profile/tabnabber.bsky.social and https://tabnabber.substack.com/
