I usually compose for piano but my friend and I are going to start playing some duets together.

So I started learning about guitar chords and theory but.... i have no clue how to annotate some things on the guitar like whammy or some weird sounds i see that tabs can annotate.

I use finale 2007 btw. Is there a site or something that tells you all the things you can put in for guitar?

I really don't know. The tabs I get from websites tend to either leave that stuff out or write it in with words.

Hmm, well when I use Sibelius I just make a guitar line (treble clef) and put in the notes... ^^; Maybe it doesn't have to be anything special?
