I believe it means an optional note.....I may be wrong though.

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": The food court is downstairs. The cookie stand is upstairs. It's not like we're talking quantum physics here.

On my tabs, and some of others, it can also means a questionable note. Here, though, it's optional.

I thought it was like a "ghost note"....one that, if it's played, is not played as loudly as the others
