    Well I play left handed so it’s fine for me :)

  • MagicKeys4Guitar 11 years ago

    I have found a way to find any note on any string on the guitar fretboard.
    I call it the Magic keys. It can be learn and use in minutes, not hours or days or years.
    Why did not someone think of this bFore!!!!

    With Magic keys, you will be able to find any note quickly. I have though the method to my wife-she is a non guitarist, non musician. She learnt it in about an hour and can find all the natural notes on the fretboard.
    Let me know what u think this Radical revolutionary idea!!!

    this hurts my head

  • Dennis St Germain 11 years ago

    I set it up that way to simulate the idea that your are looking at someone’s guitar. If you look at someone holding a guitar you will see the same perspective.

    the orientation of the fretboard is like for left handed players.
    The head of the guitar should be on the left. Not good
    for getting a good picture of the notes.

    Brilliant.

  • AKHalex 11 years ago

    It’s not that hard. Just remember that you go up two frets to go to the next note except for when you go from E to F and from B to C. Then you only go up one fret. The 12th and the 24th fret will always be the same note as the open string. Open D is a D. The second fret is E, the third fret is F, the fifth fret is G, the seventh fret is A.. If you keep this in mind, you will easily be able to figure every single tuning out without any problems ;)  It took me 5 minutes to figure out myself..

  • MrMojooRisin 11 years ago

    you just have to learn the note circle (google it) and the name of the open strings. 1 fret is a semitone, 2 fret is a tone. thats all:P

    excellent way to visualize octaves on the fretboard, handy for scales, chords, arpeggios.. intervals.. all over the fretboard. Thanks a lot.!!!

  • Ramon Koroheke 11 years ago

    Thanks Dennis. I’ve been playing Bass by ear all my life. It just doesn’t cut it anymore. I am going to the next level and this has helped A lot !! Hope you continue to keep sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world. Your PPT Presentation Style is easy to understand :)
    Much appreciated !! Peace! And stay Conscious…lol

    you just need to modify the pattern for the first string. everything else stays the same. all you need to do is move the first fret in the pattern up two frets to compensate for the dropped note. that’s how the pattern changes. as for the note names just bring it back a whole step except the 6th string. do that 2 whole steps.
    E drops to C – 2 whole steps
    A drops to G – 1 whole step
    D drops to C – 1 whole step
    G drops to F – 1 whole step
    B drops to A – 1 whole step
    e drops to d – 1 whole step

  • TheHexebus 11 years ago

    normal person?? yeah i already know the notes on standard tuning its the alternate tunings that im having a trouble memorizing

  • SteveOTheMan16 11 years ago

    you stick to normal tuning like a normal person. if you don’t know how to correctly play in standard you shouldn’t be using alternate tunings yet.

  • Ted Lawton 11 years ago

    Thank you!

  • DReidGuitars 11 years ago

    just work from the open strings note down the fret board. Different tuning same principle

  • Dennis St Germain 11 years ago

    When you change the tuning of a guitar it changes everything. All the notes are displaced and the pattern does not hold up. I’m sure that with some other tuning, you can find another pattern.

  • TheHexebus 11 years ago

    what if im in drop c?? or any other multiple tunings?? :(

  • cilaboom 11 years ago
