The first is about tablature notation. On a lesson, I found these tab : I found that the "g" is a grace note . What does that mean? What is it for?

Like it sounds you wanted to go for it but didn't really played it out, it is guessed that that note should have been there. There would be no mistake if you play it or not but it's there writen for you. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I tried with and without it. Without it, it really doesn't sound very nice. Would it be incorrect to say that it's a kind of mini-hammer-on?(on this tab) You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

As we can see, on the above tab, it appears just after the slide. On the video, it is just a slide. What's that for? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's "tied" so you get a larger note value and you often use it when you have long notes that's so long that it doesn't end until the next bar or even later.

As for grace note, it's more like prenote, played right before real note note and there are few way to connect them, like hammer-on, slide, pull-off etc. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
