Where can i transpose a piano music sheet into a guitar tab?

This is the one greatest argument I have against learning on tabs. As a classical guitarist (I'm assuming the music is classical which is why it's in this forum), you should learn to read standard notation. This would allow you to play the piano piece directly without the need for tabs.





You should remember, however, that the guitar is NOT a piano -- you will not be able to reproduce the piano music exactly. The best you can hope for is to find the melodic line in the music and then reproduce the accompaniment as closely as possible within the limitations of the guitar. The fact that this process is very subjective is exactly why there are no automatic TAB transposer programs.Where can i transpose a piano music sheet into a guitar tab?
There have been many guitar players asking the same question over the years creating a flourishing market for guitar tab transposers. I would suggest perhaps doing a google search on the piece and see if anyone has done it yet. If it's that important to you you might have to hire someone to do it.





Keep in mind it migh not be possible to play the piano part on guitar note for note. The guitar neck has limitations that the keyboard does not and the guitar is limited to 6 notes at a time while you can play up to 10 notes (10 fingers) on the piano.
