Hi Muris,
I'm working on one of your lessons (Fast Country Solo). I printed the score but I'm not familiar with those letters appearing next to some notes (s, p, b, h, r, L, ?...).
Could you explain that a little bit to me ?
Many thanks !

(Apologies Raphael and Muris - moved the OP from Muris' Gear sub-forum to here as this seems a more appropriate place. Cheers,
Tony.)
