Members V-man Posted April 14, 2009 Members Share Posted April 14, 2009 Great method, but he ignores everthing south of the 12th on his first lesson. maybe he picks it up in #2 or #3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pixelchemist Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 no point in learning south of 12its the same as 1 - 11 as far as notes go at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoredGuitarist7 Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 no point in learning south of 12 its the same as 1 - 11 as far as notes go at least Yes there is. The same notes, but they sound different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members V-man Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 no point in learning south of 12its the same as 1 - 11 as far as notes go at least I get that, but I wonder if it's smarter practice to know both octaves immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scolfax Posted April 15, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 I get that, but I wonder if it's smarter practice to know both octaves immediately. One reason not to take that approach would be to keep the information bite-sized. And you're really learning both at the same time anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tinear Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 That's really helpful. I'm just in the process of doing this and this does seem like a great method of doing it. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Coralkong Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 I got 31 in a row and quit the test..... Not sure what the point is, to be honest. Once you know them, you know 'em. Doesn't teach you what notes "go" with what.....just where they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. The point is.... for people that don't know them. Also, I think the online test isn't that great. You have to be at the fretboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ten56gibby Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 no point in learning south of 12 its the same as 1 - 11 as far as notes go at least Let's not forget that the scale gets shorter and shorter and that some fretboards change radius the higher you get on the neck. So it your hands have more learning to up there as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fly_with_v Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 Good Lesson idea. Test needs a timer, you should be completing it by memory. Maybe a note every second or two would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Machine Gun Posted April 15, 2009 Members Share Posted April 15, 2009 Nice work. A lot of people underestimate the importance of knowing exactly what note is where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Yngtchie Blacksteen Posted April 16, 2009 Members Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hey, that's the way I learned it. Was at work one day, and tested myself by drawing a guitar neck and figuring out all the notes on the neck, using plain logic. It was tough, but I got it down eventually.I realized later that there were a few things that needed to be redone, but all in all I was happy with it.

Members jerry_picker Posted April 16, 2009 Members Share Posted April 16, 2009 It is useful to incorporate fretboard knowledge into a practice routine, painful as that might be. This guys lesson could be used low-high, high-low, and for speed. I guess. I prefer scales and arpeggios myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scolfax Posted April 16, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 16, 2009 Everyone should go through the exercise that you did, that's great! Actually, that's one of the first exercises in Fretboard Roadmaps. But the point of the videos is memorizing the fretboard, the next step to knowing how to derive where the notes are. Meaning, can you go straight to the, say, A note on the third string without having to think about it. And the approach the video guy is taking is not to relate each note to a note two strings over, which is one way to do it. He also suggests going through the natural notes in the order: CBDFEGA, which makes sense if you watch the vids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bphill Posted April 16, 2009 Members Share Posted April 16, 2009 this program is in the same vein as the you tube video but makes a game of it as well. Its also freehttp://www.francoisbrisson.com/fretboardwarrior/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
