Learning the notes on the guitar fretboard

Posted on | | 3 Comments

Many guitarists develop a comfort zone of positions on the fretboard that they experience difficulty getting out of. The most basic is when you start off on the guitar by learning the notes and chords in the first position and somehow never get round to finding out where the notes and chords are further up the guitar’s neck.
So today I have listed a bunch of places on the web where you can get some encouragement to explore the possibilities of the guitar more fully.
1. “Most guitar players are victims of their own quick-fix mentality. “Why learn every scale in every key if I can use a ‘cookie-cutter shape’ scale pattern that I can move around the guitar neck and play the same notes?” What happens is that a large number of players know their scales if somebody holds their hand and takes them to the root note or starting point of the scale, but what they don’t learn is what notes they are playing and how they all relate together. And, more importantly, how to use the scales to make music that doesn’t sound like they’re “trapped in a box”.

3. “Memorizing the name of the notes on the entire fretboard may seem like a daunting task, because a standard guitar has 21 or more frets. That’s 126 or more frets with notes to memorize… or is it? In reality it’s not as bad as that. We’ve made it as simple as possible.
Below is a 5 step tutorial that will help you become familiar with the fretboard and it’s notes. You don’t have to learn them all right away but it’s a long term goal that you should strive for, so working on learning them on a regular basis is a good idea.” Discover The Fretboard
4. “Some things you can do with the scale and chord tone diagram printer:
Generate guitar scales or bass scales on the fretboard.
View and print scales for drop-D tuning on a guitar or bass fretboard.
Display the notes to guitar chords on the fret board.

Find your own guitar chord voicings by assembling the arpeggio notes of chords in various ways.
Print out all the guitar notes on the guitar fretboard or bass notes on the bass fretboard.
Create printable blank fretboard diagrams for any number of strings in any shape or size.
Create and print scales for violin, cello, double bass and other fretless string instruments.
Show the notes of natural harmonics on the guitar, bass guitar or any other stringed instrument.
Generate diagrams for almost all scales and chords from the vast scale and chord dictionary.
Make left-handed guitar fretboard diagrams.” Scale and Chord Tone Fretboard Printer
