Six lines run across the page for the strings, and a five-line stave sits above each one. Tablature marks where a finger goes on the neck; the stave above it can carry the same passage in standard notation, or carry nothing at all if the tab is doing the whole job that day.

The pitch is 2.47 millimetres between rule lines, seventy rows down the page, tight enough to fit more than one tab-and-stave pairing on a sheet without wasting it. One hundred and nine pages are ruled this way, plain paper for a working musician with nothing else printed on it.

A riff written down wrong on the tab line is still a riff you can play again badly. The stave above it is there for whoever reads it back later and was not in the room when it was written.

What is inside

Tab and stave: 109pp; Six lines for the strings paired with a five-line stave, 2.47 mm pitch, seventy rows to the page.
Reference: 11pp; Owner page, conversion tables computed from definitions, and emergency numbers checked against two independent sources.

In every book

The same six pages open every book: your details, who to call, the signs to point at when you have no shared language, and the map. They sit at the front because the moment you need them is not the moment to be flicking through.

How to use it: One page describing this book, not a different one.
This book belongs to: One page for your name and number, so a book that goes missing can come back.
My details: Blood group, allergies, who to call. Written once, carried everywhere.
Emergency numbers: Forty countries, taken from Wikidata property P2852 (CC0), agreed across two sources, every row carrying its QID. Numbers change and a book does not — verify locally on arrival.
Point at this: A pictogram grid captioned in English above and Indonesian below, for when there is no shared language.
World map: Natural Earth 110m, public domain, equirectangular, with UTC hour meridians computed from the projection rather than from a timezone database. For orientation and for pointing at, not a navigation chart.
Conversion tables: Computed from definitions — 25.4 mm to the inch — and not copied from anywhere, so every row can be checked by anyone holding the book.
Pen test leaf: The last page, printed for it on purpose. Every notebook is used this way; printing it deliberately is cheaper than losing the last leaf to it by accident.

The film

Page by page

A vertical film, 52 seconds: the cover, the ruling page, then 5 reference pages. Synthesised ambient bed, no dialogue — captions in three languages.

A vertical film from our own bench — this page contacts nobody's server to play it, and downloads nothing until you press play.
