    I’m on my 2nd year of learning guitar and at the end of my lesson tonight I said to my teacher that maybe I needed the note stickers on my fretboard. He wasn’t impressed. 🤪
    Then this is my first RUclips search for learning fretboard and I’m already playing some new scales across the fretboard.
    Wow!!!
    Thanks so much for those simple mnemonics. I already knew about Eddie, but the let it BE has been awesomely helpful.

    Been playing guitar self taught for a few years in my teens and just picked it back up. I always knew how to tune my guitar using the 5th fret going down and sliding over to the 4th fret towards the bottom. Soon as you said they are in unison it all clicked. It’s basically playing all the same note😂 wow took me this long to learn that. Awesome video

    You demystified the fretboard for me. Now I see it as a stacked octave of piano, each starting with "EDDY ATE DYNAMITE GOOD BYE EDDY" string hitting the white and black keys until I reach the 12th fretboard!
    Just brilliant!

    I'm very much a person of 'patterns' and association tricks. Every Good Boy Does Fine; F.A.C.E.; Every Mode has a relative major scale... AND NOW, B and E don't have a sharp!!! For me, that's HUGE! Thanks!!! It's the simple key I needed to open up a different way of thinking about it.

  • @vincentlok8894
    @vincentlok8894 5 лет назад +62

    I think it's helpful to know the mnemonic, but it's easier to just memorize EADGBE, for one thing it's just 6 things, or if you know the two outer strings are E, then you really only need to memorize 4. The problem with Eddy Ate Dynamite, Good Bye Eddy is that you'll keep using it. So if I point to the D string, in your head you'll recite (Eddy ate dynamite...) Oh, that's a D string. Kind of easier to just memorize it.

    • @kaistruik7878
      @kaistruik7878 4 года назад +1

    • @gusgrizzel8397
      @gusgrizzel8397 4 года назад

      Vincent Lok I agree. It's the same thing with memorizing where notes are on the staff. FACE...so one has to count the spaces and say that in their head. I think it's easier to just become familiar with where they are.

    I know this video was five years ago, but man. I had two different guitar teachers in my life, they were both amazing, but they never taught me this. I legit could never memorize the different notes, I just memorized which lines on the music correlated to which note. I could look a music sheet with a simple song and play it back with little practice, but could not tell you which letter notes I was playing. (My teacher thought it was impressive). This video changes that for me, thank you.

    also if you bring up a fretboard chart you see pattern of notes in first lowest two strings are repeated in the next two pairs, starting at fret 3 and (last pair) fret 6. If you can memorize note pairs in first (eg. by word association) you could use it in next two also.

      This guy is stupid and did not take the time to understand music. most instruments including the guitar have a e# and b# but a # is just a way to say one key up like on piano for example b# and c are the same key as are e# and f the same goes for flats if he wants ignore 2 notes thats fine but not acknowledging the existence of two notes it's a serious flaw in a musician.

    • @BlGGESTBROTHER
      @BlGGESTBROTHER 5 лет назад

      @the random pineapple As i understand it a # is just a half semitone increment. So a half semitone above a b would be an f, not a b#. I think what you mean is that you can play b# and e# chords; which is very different than being able to play those notes.

    I come from playing the keyboard and i have learned the basics like the notes and scales. I find that knowledge extremely helpful for playing guitar! If you guys have difficulties with understanding music theory like notes and scales on the guitar, try to look it up for the piano. The basics will still be the same and for me they were more understandable, maybe because its the first thing i learned. The only difference is the shape.

    Well... This teaches you how to find notes on a fretboard. However, it doesn't teach you a better method to memorize it other than "just memorize it". If you were to find say a c# on any given string you can only count the frets with this method. Great explanation but the title is misleading.

    • @oneeyemonster3262
      @oneeyemonster3262 7 лет назад +5

      KEYS are just Pitch dude...All I know is...if the Music sheet or singer say...Play this shit in C# minor...I ma pretend the 4th fret is the NUT
      as if it was like in Amin...So Im just going to make the C# minor bar chord shape then lift my pinky to play the E note. Then it's all down hill from there.
      Then I ma harmonic minor , melodic minor , or harmonic major it..
      Im just thinking in INTERVALS after I locate the ROOT note.
      As in #4, 2. maj13 or whatever the heck modes/scales I can play from
      each tone center.
      If the singer still complains and threw a harmonica at me...
      Then a light bulb will go off in my head....Oh..okay..you want this shit to sound country??? Then I ma play E major pentatonic from the NUT as if is was at the 8th fret....i personally dont really give a fuck if you call it the key of Fb...
      becuase Im thinking in terms of INTERVALS and the TYPE of intervals
      from the Fb.lmao
      Then I ma go to the IV chord and play a whatever A major intervals.
      or whatever chord progession starting from the Fb maj lmao
      In other words...Let say from C maj/ A min...I see the E note as the III from
      the major count or V from the A minor count. I see notes as INTERVALS, now.
      Not so much letters anymore...They had to lable them something..
      They could has easily label them WUVXYZ.lmao
      i know where all the notes are at on the fret board. its actaully from doing
      what he's teaching. Plus whatever else i learn.
      Im not beyound doing single string runs or riffs either. It actaully help me
      alot when i mix with other type of fretboard navigation.
      if you played a 7 string guitar. it;s even easier to see. The patterns repeats
      itself over and over again...Lets say the Low B sting is added...
      At the 5th fret would be exaclty the same as it would be at the NUT.
      or you can barr your finger across the 7th fret...E note ( A string)..
      It's samething as it would at the nut...just an octive higher.

    • @Xeranx
      @Xeranx 7 лет назад +5

      A possible method to learning the notes on the fretboard is looking at power chords. As long as you know the notes on the 6th and 5th strings, you'll get a better handle on the notes on the fretboard. With power chords, you play the root note on either the 6th or 5th string and the higher pitched version is played two strings over from the initial string the root note is played. So if you play the power chord A starting on the sixth string, you'll know that two strings over (4th string) from the note A and two frets up towards the guitar bridge/sound hole (7th fret) is a higher sounding A. Now what you're left with is figuring out what the note is being played on the 7th fret of the 4th string which is E. From there, you can try to find that same combination utilizing power chords as the main structure across the entire neck. You'll learn that you'll have to find some of the notes further up the neck on the higher strings (2nd and 1st strings; B and e respectively). You can do this with just about any note with respect to the 6th and 5th strings. Hope it helps.

    You made me stop and think about how I know where all the notes are. I never really sat down and tried to memorize all the notes. Association is key. I learned chords, scales, intervals, the notes in each, and their relationship to each other, and how to play them. During this process knowing where they are on the fret board just happens.
