Are you looking for Nirvana guitar tabs acoustic players can use? One of the seminal rock bands of the early '90s, Nirvana is known for its heavy grunge songs and loud lyrics. However, not many people realize that many of Nirvana's songs either use an acoustic guitar or can be played acoustically. If you have been trying to find Nirvana guitar tabs acoustic, this article can help you!

Nirvana formed in 1985 when Kurt Cobain met Krist Novoselic. The band went through several incarnations before finally bringing in Dave Grohl to be their drummer. In 1990, the band signed to DGC Records and began to record music for Nevermind. The album ended up becoming one of the largest selling albums of the nineties. The lead single Smells Like Teen Spirit has been named as the song of the decade by many leading music magazines.

Following Nevermind, the band moved on to create Incesticide and 1993's In Utero. Following a performance on MTV Unplugged (a popular show where bands would play their songs acoustically), the band's acoustic reputation began to grow just as the band itself began to disintegrate. On April 8th, 1994, lead singer Kurt Cobain was found dead. To this day, there is still great debate among fans whether his death was a suicide or murder.

Full-length albums released by the band include:

• Bleach (1989)
• Nevermind (1991)
• Incesticide (1992)
• In Utero (1993)
• MTV Unplugged (1994)
