The guitar fretboard is the area along the front side of the guitar neck that features inset fret wires, spaces, and inlaid markers. Guitarists press strings down to the fretboard in order to change pitches. With a combination of vertical frets and horizontal strings, the fretboard is essentially a grid. With its horizontal strings and vertical 5th fret tuning teaches you that the same pitch (or unison) is 5 frets lower (towards the headstock) on the string physically below. That five fret distance is true for any note at any fret on any string. Except…between strings 3 (G) and 2 (B) for which the same note will be 4 frets lower on string 2 (B). Once you reach the 12th fret you have the octave note, which is the same note as the open string at a higher pitch. The natural notes on the 6th string occur on frets 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 12. Guitar Notes on String 5. The notes on the 5th string start with A in the open position. The natural notes occur on frets 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10 and 12. Notes Found in Music. On the guitar, each fret represents a specific note. The distance of one fret is a semi-tone and the distance of 2 frets is a whole tone. Let's take the 6th string as an illustration. Starting on an open string E, the 1st fret (semi tone higher) would be an F note and the 2nd fret (whole tone higher) would be an F# note First, we know the open strings: E - A - D - G - B - E. Next, across the 5th fret we have: A - D - G - C - E - A. Finally, from the 10th fret we have: D - G - C - F - A - D. Although it isn't particularly difficult to memorize a few six-letter sequences, you may find the use of acronyms helpful.
