My jaw hit the floor when I saw this website! Its got lots of free sheet music and tabs which it not only displays but plays back in your browser complete with tempo, volume controls, optional metronome etc!

Good find. More the merrier.

danboid, do you get any sound off that website? I don't, only hearing the metronome. On the top, where it says "Loading Soundfonts" it stays all the times at 0 %. Nice site nontheless ...

No sound for me, too.
Soundbank is loaded but I can't hear anything no matter if I use alsa-loop-jack or alsa-jack bridge.

That's only impressive if you aren't aware of what else exists. This is direct competitor to maybe half a dozen similar sites, and all of this in-browser stuff is bullshit. It's about taking control away from users. Guitar Pro does all that at a superb professional level as proprietary software you can run yourself, and it's Linux compatible. You can download tons of files in Guitar Pro format (most of which are made by the community, so sites like JellyNote are exploiting the community's work for their own gain, or at least being no more than redundant). Sticking to FLO software, Tux Guitar does a lot of this pretty darn well and imports Guitar Pro files up through version 5. MuseScore v.2 is now in beta and has lots of these features and imports Guitar Pro files, and Musescore.com already has a site with synchronized playback with videos and everything, and the basic system is all FLO.

I wish people would stop using these locked-down ad-based restrictive platforms when community-respecting options exist and need support.

Yes it would have been better if they'd simply made the scores available as pdf downloads instead which would have been more in keeping with sharing the good karma all around as opposed to attempting to monetize it off the back of other people's hard work. We should have a thread for this kind of thing to share resources. Here are some sites for bass guitar.

(Yes I realise some of them could be a bit locked down as well... pls don't shoot me)
