HELP with tabs~!!

[denzal]

Hi all, i am learning to play a song in a lower key, G to F. And i am having a hard time transposing the intro tabs into the F key, I tried using the muse score studio but after i clicked transpose the notes were to hard and too high to play. Is there any one that studies music that can help? thanks.

Learn the basic 12 notes and learn what frets on the guitar correspond to what note, it takes about 10 mins on google. Then transpose your tab manually. Faster and easier in the long run.

PS it’s not clear what you want to do in your screenshot…your “before” picture is in D major but the “after” is in F major?

before ss is E key, the after is me transposing into F key on muse score studio but when i play it with the F key it sounds weird like its too high.

If you need to play in a slightly lower key, it may be easier to just down tune the guitar. Because of the fingering used in the original key, example open strings, you can't simply transpose by playing a lower fret, or the resulting fingering will be very weird.
