    How to Read Bass Tab: A Beginner's Guide
    1. Understanding the Basics
    a. Strings:
    Bass tab consists of horizontal lines representing the strings of the bass guitar.
        The lowest-pitched string (usually the E string) is at the bottom, and the highest-pitched string
        (usually the G string) is at the top.
    b. Numbers:
    Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to play on a specific string.
        For example, if you see "3" on the E string, it means you should press down the third fret on the lowest string.
    2. Reading Bass Tab Example
    In this tab:
    
        - Play the note on the 1st fret of the E string.
 
        - Play the open E string.
 
        - Play the 3rd fret on the A string.
 
        - Play the 1st fret on the A string.

    3. Playing Techniques
    a. Hammer-ons and Pull-offs:
    Hammer-ons are represented by an "h" (e.g., 5h7 means play the 5th fret and hammer onto the 7th fret).
        Pull-offs are represented by a "p" (e.g., 7p5 means play the 7th fret and pull off to the 5th fret).
    b. Slides:
    Slides are often indicated by an "/" or "\\" between two numbers (e.g., 5/7 means slide from the 5th fret to the 7th fret).
