Detail 01
Guitar tab format
Numbers on six lines show exact string and fret, so you get Beck's actual fingerings, not a re-voicing.

Hal LeonardJeff Beck - Blow By Blow Guitar Tab Songbook
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Note-for-note guitar tab transcriptions of Jeff Beck's Blow By Blow. For intermediate-plus players who want to learn that album properly rather than approximate it.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitarists studying Beck's phrasing and volume-knob technique
- Players wanting instrumental material without vocals to cover
- Anyone drilling fingerstyle-and-pick hybrid electric playing
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners — this material is demanding at full tempo
- Players who want other Jeff Beck albums; this is one record
- Anyone needing backing tracks to play along with
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Single-album songbook
Full track-by-track coverage of one record instead of a scattered greatest-hits sampler.
Detail 03
Instrumental album transcriptions
The guitar carries the melody throughout, so every page is lead work rather than rhythm parts behind a singer.
Detail 04
Transcription book, not a method
It shows what was played, not how to build up to it. You bring the technique.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Print book only — the album itself is a separate purchase
- 02Much of this needs bends, vibrato and volume swells to sound right
- 03Tab shows pitch and position; listen to the record for feel and timing
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need to read music?
No. Tab is readable without notation knowledge. Reading rhythm does help, since tab alone won't teach you the timing of Beck's phrasing.
02What skill level is this?
Intermediate and up. The parts are playable slowly by a determined intermediate, but full-speed accuracy takes real command of bending and vibrato.
03Does it include a CD or audio?
Treat it as a print transcription book. Pair it with your own copy of the album and slow the audio down in a player app.
04Will this work on acoustic?
You can play the notes, but the tone depends on an electric with a volume knob you can ride and an amp with sustain.
