Which, even if you don\u2019t know what they are now, the more you learn about guitar the more prevalent they will become. This statement is true for most things related to music theory.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t have any desire to learn it at the beginning, the more you play guitar, the more it will keep cropping up.<\/p>\n<p>Learn the open string names first: Starting from the thickets string the rhyme is:\u00a0<strong>E<\/strong>ddie\u00a0<strong>A<\/strong>te<strong>D<\/strong>ynamite\u00a0<strong>G<\/strong>ood\u00a0<strong>B<\/strong>ye<strong>\u00a0E<\/strong>ddie<\/p>\n<p>Next, on the E string the third, fifth and seventh fret spell out\u00a0<strong>G A B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, learn the musical alphabet off by heart. It\u2019s only 12 notes.\u00a0<strong>A \u2013 A# \u2013 B \u2013 C \u2013 C# \u2013 D \u2013 D# \u2013 E \u2013 F \u2013 F# \u2013 G \u2013 G#<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you keep going up though the alphabet when you get to G# you will go full circle and return to A again.<\/p>\n<p>There are no sharps (#) between B \u2013 C and E \u2013 F.<\/p>\n<p>To find any note on the fretboard, first of all work out what the name is of the open string. If you\u2019re pressing down the third fret on the G string, you know the open string is called G. Then work your way up the musical alphabet by three steps (the same as the three frets) starting at G. So you\u2019d go 1st fret = G# 2nd fret = A and third fret = A#.<\/p>\n<p>There you have it, it\u2019s very logical when you know the open string names and the musical alphabet.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an ios (Apple) device then download\u00a0<a class=\"bogd\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/gb\/app\/fret-tester-learn-notes-for\/id442144977?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Fret Tester<\/strong><\/a>.
