Is there something like an "H" chord in guitar tablature written by Ge!
Question: A classmate of mine was just asking me about a notation that he saw in guitar tablature created by German speakers that looked like an "H" chord. I've never heard of anything like that. Even though I play the guitar well, I haven't played much music written for the German-speaking audience. What could my classmate have been referring to?

Here is something I found on a site giving instructions for beginning accordion players: "The exception is that (German) B is (English) B flat, and (German) H is (English) B."
I was originally going to suggest that perhaps the difference came about to disambiguate the German ess-set from "B", but the explanation provided on this website is a little different.
The real question is why did the Deutsch feel the need to rename our perfectly good B flat to B and our perfectly good B to H? Crazy Germans. ;)
I'm not so firm at music but I know the German H is an English B (the other notes are unchanged). So a German "H" chord should be a "B" chord.
