Finding Notes on the Guitar Fingerboard There are many relationships that can help you with this task. Visualization is really one of the main keys to this. Remember the tuning of the guitar as one of the first steps, also the notes on the open strings. Every 12 frets it repeats. So one technique is to visualize the 12 th fret as the nut of the guitar. The chromatic scale is also a big help.

Write the names of the notes on each string. Use the chromatic scale and each fret up is one place counter-clockwise on the chromatic scale. E Notice that the first & 6 th string have the same Letter names!!

E E A D G B E Notice how the 12 th fret is exactly the same names as the open strings. Make sure that you know both the open strings and the 12 th fret names! A D G C E A Notice that the notes on the 5 th fret are the same as the open strings moved down one string with the exception of the 5 th fret 3 rd string is a ‘C’ (one ½ step higher due to the tuning of the guitar)!!! At this point you should now know the 12 th and the 5 th frets. Also start to think about the other notes using the chromatic scale.

Some of the other relationships. The 1 st and 6 th E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E

Some of the other relationships. The 1 st and 6 th E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E E The 4 th string notes are offset by 2 frets from the 6 th or 1 st string. Open 6 th string is the same as the 4 th string 2 nd fret (one octave higher).

Another relationship is that the notes on the 5 th string are the same as the ones on the 6 th string but up 7 frets. This relationship follows each of the pairs of strings other than from the 3 rd to the 2 nd string and then it is 8 frets up. E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E E

See how the 5 th string open and moving up compares to the 6 th string 5 th fret moving up! Again all pairs except the 2 nd to 3 rd where it is 4 frets!! E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#Gb G G#,Ab A A

Now see how the 5 th string and 3 rd string are offset by 2 frets just the same as the 6 th string and 4 th string. By now you should be getting the idea of this. I hope that by next week you can figure any note out on the guitar fingerboard. E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#Gb G G#,Ab A A

Now from the 4 th string to the 2 nd string there is a 3 fret offset. E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E D#,Eb E D#,Eb E F F#,Gb G G#,Ab A A#,Bb B C C#,Db D D#,Eb E E D D#,Eb

Write the names of the notes on each string. Use the chromatic scale and each fret up is one place counter-clockwise on the chromatic scale. E Notice that the first & 6 th string have the same Letter names!!

Now get to work Write out the examples like I did in these handouts. Work on the various relationships until you have them down perfect. Try to visualize the fingerboard and think of the names of the notes. Work on this every single day for the next month and you will have it down!!!!
