What does Guitar (capo 3) mean?

Probably - without further instructions - to use standard tuning and put a capo on the guitar between the 2nd and 3rd frets. Then if the tab shows, for example, E G and A chords, you'd play them the way you normally would, but counting the capo as the nut, the fourth fret as the first, etc. This means that when you play an E chord, you'll actually hear a G chord - play a G chord, you'll hear Bb, and play an A chord and you'll hear C.

:D :D :D

Put a capo across the 3rd fret of the guitar neck. If you don't know what a capo is, look here;

the capo is used to change the tuning of a guitar without actually re-tuning it using the tuning pegs. This is done to make a song easier to play, or to make the music fit the vocal range of the singer, such as James Blunt, who's guitarists use capos high up the neck to match his high voice.

If you don't have a capo, it is still possible to play the song but it will mean using barre chords and possibly moving around the neck much more than you would need to with the capo, as you would be playing open chords instead of barres.

Personally, I couldn't live without my capo - I use it so much! :lol:
