Memorizing the notes on the guitar fretboard will give you a big advantage. Once you have the notes memorized you will spend less time looking for notes and more time playing. The trick to memorizing the guitar neck is to do it one note at a time. So here are the steps.
- Step 1. Learn the chromatic scale. The chromatic scale consists of 12 notes. *A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#. To better understand the chromatic scale I recommend you check out the G4 Guitar Theory book. To learn more visit our website www.g4guitarmethod.com
- Step 2. Find all the A notes on each string and memorize their positions. Practice this for a week.
- Step 3. In the next week find all the B notes and practice everyday for a week. 3rd week find all the C notes and so on.
The idea is to rotate around the notes spending a week on each until you can find any note instantly then use the chromatic scale to locate the sharps and flats.
