JESUS CHRIST died for us on a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and was, is, and will be The TRUE LIVING GOD. In a prayer repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well. Have FAITH in CHRIST. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and also turn away from your wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You. The Bible is the true word of God. Please read the Bible and you will see Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Praise only be to GOD. JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON FOR HIS CHURCH.

Just know your F's, all the C major notes relative to it lie in a regular grid pattern from F up 4 frets and from F down in pitch two strings, with a little skew as expected between the G and B string. The regions you memorize are all an octave away from the regions you wouldn't have studied with this method. you unlock all strings at once

I learned all my triads by writing out every note of the major scale on a fret board diagram and highlighted roots 3rds and 5ths, and I did this on absolutely every key each on their own sheet of paper. Then I memorized the names of each note of every triad and memorized which was the root and 3rd in every inversion. By proxy I learned where the 5th is by process of elimination and also learned all the notes of the Fretboard as a result. Knowing where the 3rds and 5ths are are obviously useful because you can change a chord to a minor or sus, or diminished. I can do this shit with my fucken eyes closed. Changed my life.

@@Шизлманизл It would be pretty hard to do in the comment section but ill try. Get a diagram of the Fretboard board with at least 15 frets and make several photo copies. Pick a key and circle ever note of the major scale all over the Fretboard. If you don't know where they are, it's not hard to figure out. Say you wanna write out G major scale, first locate every G, then circle the whole whole half, whole whole whole half from G. Repeat that process for absolutely every G. You can even go backwards from a G which would be half, whole whole whole half whole. Once you have done that, highlight the Gs , then the 3rd note after it and then the 5th note. Do that all over the fretboard. Now you have a diagram of every single major triad. Those same shapes can be applied to every key (also known as the cage system). Here is how I memorized every note in each triad. A - spells ACE but you gotta remember the C is sharp. B- Big sharp Dam sharp Fork C- Could End Good D- Dead sharp Fucken Air E - Every sharp Good Boy F- Fake As Cake G- Good Boys Die. Note I wrote the word sharp in front of the note that is actually sharp just to make the acronyms make more sense. I realize my acronyms sound silly and unimaginative but it's what I used to remember it and it worked. Hopefully this helps you.

There's another method where you find the note in every string moving forward on the fretboard, and what I like about that method is that it teaches you to find the up or down octaves of the note (and therefore the chord shapes) cheers mate!

@MayankKumar-ru5xe 5 ай бұрын

I have not been playing guitar for very long (only 6 years), but i have sort of devised a similar way to memorise the fretboard over the years. But more recently, I have started to rely more on "feel". I am not sure if I play the right, I dont know what note I am playing, I just sort of guess, and it works 99% of the time. Another way to memorise, is to actually start playing more down the fretboard instead of sticking to the top.

@kosan3826 6 ай бұрын

I feel like the first method is how you start to be able to the other method in the first place. When you do the first method, just dont be stupid and ONLY learnt the relationships between the notes but instead where that note is located. I dont think anyone is practicing the first method by only thinking "G, 1 more frets up is A" theyll likely think "3rd fret is G, 2 frets up is A, so A is 5th" Being self taught, i ended up learning like this then using a similar method to learn the notes all across on every string and found it to be pretty straightforward and easy.

I couldn’t find it, but I don’t necessarily agree that if you couldn’t find that note on the D string means you can’t be able to improvise. Some people can just hear what the other person is playing and they just go up to a fret/note that just sounds right by ear and feel without the knowledge of where every note is. But I’m sure it most definitely helps to learn and memorize them and can improve guitar playing.

Yeah, I found it, but the wrong way: since it's on the D string, find Bb on the low E string. The fifth fret on the low E string is A, add a fret to get Bb, then octave to the D string. About a second or so. I am not suggesting this as an alternative method. It's just worth mentioning as "the other way guitarists not familiar with the fretboard find notes."
