The fingerboard has been around for almost
a millenium, and harmony has been well established for nearly 400
years. The harmonic structure of the fingerboard has given us
all the guitar music we have ever heard. The following is not
subjective, it is simple music theory demonstrated visually on the
fingerboard, and applies to all guitars with twelve or more frets
and six strings in standard tuning.

Most
guitar students will find the introduction helpful. Advanced
players can go directly to the interval maps by choosing one of the
four chord shapes.

INTRODUCTION TO FINGERBOARD INTERVALS |
|
|
|
Knowing where the intervals appear on the
fingerboard is not much use if you dont know what they are or what
they can do. Take your time. Learn to hear and identify the effect
of every note in a chord. Examine your favourite chords, see what
they have that makes you like them. and experiment with new voicings
and inversions. These maps are to help you understand, and then expand
your existing chord vocabulary.
