Is there a way to make normal piano sheet music into finger picking guitar tab?

Yes you can! The first question that comes to mind is do you know the notes and where they are located on your fret board? Such as the the 2 spots you can play your middle C? A good understanding of the different scale patterns and correspoding modes will help also. This will help you maintain a clean counterpoint and stay in “position” for the melody (would not recomend a one string approach for the melody) Also remember that piano music is actually and octave below what guitar notes are written. So keep that in mind — example the middle C on piano music is actually the high C (the C on the 3rd line of the staff). Another thing to look for when transposing piano to puitar is to remember that the piano uses alot more notes (you have 10 fingers for the piano but only 5 for your fret board) so keep a look out for unnecessary passing tones or added notes to the basic chords (your add4, sus’s, b13’s, #9’s) that is more piano oriented and those are usually passing tones that sound good wit
