Learn the “white keys”

Learning the guitar fretboard takes a whole lot of time, but one approach that’s helped me is learning the “white keys” first.

Practice the C major scale all over the neck and learn where the different note names are on the fretboard. That way you’re able to “see” the white keys of the piano all over the fretboard and when you need to know an accidental you can use the white keys as a reference.

This will give you a great start in learning the entire fretboard because you’ll eventually learn where all the other notes are with practice.
