Tabs can be voted from 1 star (the worst) to 5 stars (the best), and comments can be made about the tab. Users are able to request tablature in the site's Tab Talk forum. The MP3 functionality was removed some time before September 1, 2014. At one time the site featured MP3 functionality, allowing users to upload their own recordings to their profiles, however that feature was disabled due to lack of use and legal liability in the case of copyright violations. This was intended for networking, advertising gear, and bands in a similar way to other sites such as MySpace. On August 12, 2007, the Ultimate Guitar site launched "UG Profiles", a feature which allowed users to add profiles for each of their bands, upload pictures of themselves, as well as gear, display their "guitar skills", join groups of interest, and add other users to friends lists.

Although The Pit is a miscellaneous section, all standards are upheld. The Pit is the part of the site where the registered UGers can discuss multiple topics, including those that do not necessarily have to do with guitar or even music, including political, religious and topical issues.
