Welcome to the official unofficial repository of guitar transcriptions to many of the songs played by Phish. Actual official transcriptions can be purchased from Phish DryGoods. If you have a correction or new submission, please add or edit the file directly in Github or open an issue. There's also a small selection of old video clips of Trey playing on YouTube.

Bass tabs from Brad Weiger

A trove of over 80 hand-written bass tabs has been generously made available to the community by Brad Weiger, former bassist of the tribute band The Lawn Boys. But we need your help! If you are able and willing to help transcribe these from their present hand-written-and-scanned format to digital, your help will be much appreciated. Please save bass tabs in the bass/ subfolder.
