I want to know how the basics simbols are used on tabs and how to do them.
For Example:

e|-----10/13----

or

B|-----12b(14)

what signifies the / & b in the example

the "/" i think is a slide, and the "b" signifies a bend.

10/13 means slide from 10th fret to 13 fret.

12b(14) means bend two steps up, so the note that would be on the twelfth fret, when bended, sounds like the note on the 14th fret.

"^" also represents a bend.
fb and hb = full and half bend
tr=trill
~ i think is a whammy bar thing, not sure
we all know H and P means hammer on and pull off.

I can't think of anything else right now -.-

~ generally means Vibrato some use like v and ^ to indicate which way you should pick up or down and some use a . underneath a note to indicate palm muting
