    Carry 2 dice in your pocket, 6 sided and a 12 sided, roll randomly through the day, use the 6 for the string and 12 for the fret and turn it into a game, you will learn the fretboard very fast because the repetition will force your brain to move the information from short term memory to long term. Try this 10x a day for 2 weeks, you won't believe how fast you start to see it just after 2 or 3 days

    Great video - The way I learned the E string was to associate the natural notes with the fret numbers, hopefully might help some people. F-1 (Formula 1) G-3 (Like the G3 Summit) A-5 (like the paper size) B-7 (like the vitamin) C-8 (The name Cate, like Cate Blanchett) and D-10 (using the word 'Detention').

    And I learned it as Elvis Ate Drugs Good Bye Elvis. Very helpful.
  • @JackKirbyFan
    Genius. I never caught 'BEAD' in all the time I struggled to learn the Fretboard. It's one of those 'you can't unsee it now'. Also love the BC, EF trick of the squares. You are extremely creative and a master of pattern recognition. Love it!
  • @ResonaBLK
    You have successfully blown my mind. Been trying to memorise the fretboard for the longest time, starting from A and E but this has just flipped the concept of "Just memorise bro" on its head. Just perfect.

    Good evening Mr. Comiskey! I must thank you for posting this. I've been playing guitar for exactly 30 years now and I always got hung up on unlocking the fretboard UNTIL seeing this! I knew a few basics but always reverted to noodling or playing songs I knew instead of really applying myself to learn the notes properly. Your method makes it all so much easier. Sincerely, thanks man!
  • @CKwealthcreator
    I've just found this resource and thank you - I don't want to hijack the topic but let me say another useful pattern is when I memorized the E strings then THE SAME notes are on the D string but 2 frets UP (towards the bridge) - so learning the E strings gives you 3 strings or half the board under your belt.
  • @aslamahmed2564
    Ricky, you are simply the best in explaining the guirar notes and making your viewers so clear how the frets and notes are layed out. I am so greatful for your explaination. Many thanks. Very good demonstration.
  • @MAC88-88
    I have watched this video 3 months ago, then last week and again today... finally clicked. Thanx Rick.
  • @G.T.01
    Fantastic explanation for this pattern recognition, thank you!
  • @MikeEHY
    What a great summary. Being fairly new to the guitar and at a stage where I need to actually memorize the fret board, this description was a fantastic, “dime tour” of the challenge/task at hand.
  • @TheForeverchanges
    Some "nuggets" here...the F and B, and B and F diagonal relationships are great. I have found several of your videos extremely helpful. Thank you!
  • @mgd9151
    I'm a visual learner and really do appreciate your videos very much.🎉
  • Thank you. I understand music and play piano but learning guitar as a new challenge and the pattern of the fretboard has always evaded me. Thank you for making these for us visual learner types ❤
  • @JesseLandau
    B and C always on top of E and F is something I hadn't really thought about before. Thank you.
  • @lowellirish
    This is GREAT!!! I might just break through this year!!!
  • @davidreally2639
    You're awesome ! This will greatly help my goal of learning all the notes much faster.
