Please e-mail submissions to admin@guitarholler.com .  User submissions will be remain unedited... submitters are encouraged to put links to personal websites, e-mails, etc. in their tab files, this will help you get exposure! Note: You may wonder why we have simple strumming rhythm audio on select bluegrass songs?  I've found for the beginner its hard to hear the guitar in some bluegrass songs.  When I was starting I always wished that there would be a resource to merely hear the guitar part.  That is what we are trying to provide with the simple rhythm audio files.
