    Music publishers are stepping up their campaign to remove guitar tablature from the Net. Recently Guitartabs.com received a nastygram from lawyers for the National Music Publishers Association and The Music Publishers Association of America.

Guitartabs.com is currently not offering tablature while the owner evaluates his legal options.
