john_the_bass Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hello I am v-e-r-y slowly tabbing out a copy of the notation i have for going underground. I know the notes on a stave or whatever it's called for bass clef - do i assume that if certain lines of the stave have sharps on (#), all the notes on the line are played sharp and it's possible that some of the lines won't be sharp at all?

john_the_bass Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 I get you - thanks Steve, that makes sense. I will be mostly sitting down this evening with my pen and about 15 copies of this notation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
