Bass Guitar Tablature Explanation

Each dash / symbol in the tablature represents a 16th note, so in a 4/4 bar there are 16 dashes,
2/4 there are 8, etc. Where the tablature for one note needed more than just one symbol
for a note (e.g., where the note played is on fret 10 or above, gaps have been placed in the 
surrounding dashes in order that the note's length isn't confused, and that there isn't a 
problem raised over "Is it a 'Ten' or 'One' then a 'Zero".There was also a problem over hammer-on's,
etc between 16th notes, and so gaps have been left in the surrounding dashes in these cases. 
Hope you understand all this, once you get the hang of it, it should be really easy!!
