This website is based on a software package that Jon bought. I don't recall if vBulle is the name of the package, or the company that released it, but that's the meaning behind the "powered by vBulle" tag in the history chain of your browser.

Anyway, my point is that this other site probably uses the same software package.

This must be a sister site of some sort. When you drill down a layer or two, the headers in the 'Back' drop-down of the browser strat referring to "Guitar Tabs at Guitar Tricks"! I recall somebody asking about creating a place to post tabs. There was some concern about copywright issues, but it looks like that was overcome. Hmmmm...

There is another possibility:
Maybe he was here, liked the look of things and
decided that his tab page should look like GuitarTricks.
Its not hard, its just to download the guitarpicture
on the first page and use the same font and voila!
I dont understand how that page can be powered by
vBulletin, because vBulletin is a Forum-software
(correct me if Im wrong), and there is'nt one there.
But then on the other hand it says vBulle, not vBulletin.
