Lesson Description:
How clearly do you see the fretboard logic of the guitar? If you didn't say "perfectly clearly" then you're not alone. We want the fretboard to feel as obvious to us as the keyboard is to a pianist, but at first it's far from it. Getting lost on the guitar is the norm, but it doesn't have to be. The fretboard is very logical. We want to study that logic and turn the guitar into a crystal clear map of musical possibilities. In this lesson I explain the two essential ways to do that. Learning fretboard logic like this can make all the difference and in next week's lesson we'll use these two skills to easily find a ton of new and creative chord voicing options all over the guitar.

This is my second fretboard guitar lesson but I’ll be doing more because seeing the guitar fretboard logic, fretboard mapping, and some strategic fretboard memorization can make all the difference in the world. The fretboard map we want to create on the neck is mostly about being able to see where the same notes exist in different places and learning fretboard octave shapes. The two fretboard exercises I gave you in this lesson are important parts of getting this stuff down. Learning is not just about hearing information explained—it’s very important to actually think through the material and practice it yourself in a hands-on way. That’s how we really get theory, and mapping, and logic like this down! Some people try learning fretboard diagrams on paper, but the fretboard map we want is only useful if we can navigate it with our hands on the real instrument. Good luck with learning the logic of the fretboard and mapping it out! I’m excited to show you what we can do with it in the next lesson.
I hope you enjoyed this lesson and found it beneficial. Let me know what you thought. Thanks! :)
