Hal LeonardNirvana Nevermind Guitar Tab Songbook
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Note-for-note guitar tab transcriptions of Nirvana's Nevermind. For guitarists who read tab and want to play the album's twelve songs accurately.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Intermediate players learning grunge riffs by the actual fingering
- Guitarists who read tab but not standard notation
- Working through a full album rather than scattered singles
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Bassists — this is guitar tab, not bass tab
- Players who want audio backing tracks to play along with
- Anyone wanting only one or two songs from the record
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
Songbook, not a method book
Assumes you already have chords and basic technique. No lessons, exercises, or graded progression.
Detail 03
Full-album collection
Covers the record's track list, so cost per song is low compared to buying single sheets.
Detail 04
Hal Leonard edition
Licensed transcription, so lyrics and arrangements are printed in full rather than approximated.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does it include tabs for the solos?
Yes. These are note-for-note transcriptions, so lead lines and solos are written out along with the rhythm parts.
02Is standard notation included or just tab?
It is a tab edition, built around tablature staves. Chord frames and lyrics are printed with the parts.
03Can a beginner use this?
If you already know open and power chords, yes — most of these songs are riff-based. There are no beginner lessons in the book.
04Does it have Smells Like Teen Spirit?
Yes. The book follows the Nevermind album track list, so the singles from the record are included.
