Damn. Looks like they ended the lifetime sub in 2018. I just picked up my guitar for the first time in probably 15 years after retrieving it from my parents’ basement. I remembered U-G pro tabs but it seemed so much more pervasive than before. But kinda seemed worth it. Idk about 30/yr at this time. I quickly remembered why my interest faded: my go-to music doesn’t sound great on a single guitar.
Funny sequence, though. I was trying to find tabs for current interests. My recent stream has had more Slipknot than 2010. I’m used to lots of Drop-D tuning and don’t enjoy adjusting. Turns out, between either Duality or Before I Forget and then The Devil In I, I got to enjoy detuning to Drop C and then Drop B. Didn’t even know those existed. 5 strings 5 frets lower and 1 string down 7.
30 bucks a year seems a bit steep, I don’t know if it’d be worth it at that point over buying a tab book every now and then, or just using the free version. They still have a ton of great and accurate tabs and you can build your own library if you setup a free account.
I can see Slipknot sounding a bit incomplete on just guitar. Zoom makes some good multi effect processor pedals that can sample and do drum loops, but that gets a bit technical and sort of a whole thing in and of itself, I have a great time fucking around with mine, though. Not sure what your metal tastes are, but if you’re into any doom or sludge that stuff translates well to just guitar practice and playing, a lot of three piece bands with heavy guitar emphasis. Wizard Fight by Weedeater is a quick and fun song to learn, if you’re looking for something simple and heavy to get back into things with.

Also, C standard is king.
