Learn The Fretboard Part 2<\/h3>\n

Hey, back again to continue helping you learn the fretboard!<\/p>\n

So last time we were naming all the natural notes on the guitar neck using the intervals of half steps and whole steps.<\/p>\n

If you missed that lesson, here it is https:\/\/vancouverguitarlessons.net\/2019\/06\/02\/learn-the-guitar-fretboard-part-1\/<\/a><\/p>\n

This time we are going to take 3 of those 7 notes out and we are left with a 4 note major 7 arpeggio. C major 7 = C E G B.<\/p>\n

You will want to start these from the lowest possible note found on each string, meaning not necessarily the root.\u00a0 Name each note from lowest to highest and all the way back to lowest.\u00a0 Here is the pattern on the E string.<\/p>\n

Remember to name the notes out loud while you are looking at the fretboard for maximum absorption into the cranial maximus.\u00a0 No netflix, no phone, no distractions, just focus on the fretboard and look at the notes as you say them out loud.\u00a0 Once you are done those two strings, do this on the remaining strings each day until comfortable.\u00a0 You will be well on your way to learning the fretboard.<\/p>\n

For a video demonstration, please see the vid below.\u00a0 Thanks for checking in and see you soon!<\/p>\n
