Sorry. A, not E.

Excellent. Thank you. Though I prefer 1h3 on the E instead of 3h5 on the G. It keeps the plucking pattern more consistent.

1h3 means that you keep your finger on 1 and use a different finger to "hammer down" on the 3rd fret. It creates the cool and smooth sound that is heard in the song. Thanks so much! :)

In the tab, does like the 1h3 mean that you slide? I did that and it sounds similar to how it sounds in the song. But nice job :) It's the best tab of Dirty Paws on here.

Thanks for the comment. The G# chord is confusing but is correct- if you notice there's a 3 on the side, which means the fingering shown starts on the third fret. Glad you liked the tab :)

Very nice, only thing I noticed was that the G# chord example thing is one fret low so that might confuse anyone who didn't already know it. Other than that, nice!
