No tab, Tom Kolb assumes you know the whole song

"Much like the Acoustic version on this series, the producers and instructors don't include tablature to help the guitarist follow the lesson. Moreover the entire songs are not played in full. You hear only pieces and riffs. This is probably a function of licensing and costs, but it leaves the product deficient as a learning tool. It's like learning multiplication tables that only go up to 6. So what's 6 x7? You'll never know. Best to buy a book like Signature Licks and figure out the details of playing on your own. You can do it."

Like having a friend over to show you...

"This is the most refreshing DVD I've purchased lately. True, no tab, and the songs are not complete. On the bright side, it means you have to TRY a little, and maybe learn something! Playing tab like a robot was starting to get old. Plus, Tom Kolb's personality onscreen makes him an ideal teacher. All the riffs are shown slowly and then up to speed with backing. Learn the riffs, then put on the CD, and before you know it you'll be playing along."
