Knowing Your Fretboard

Knowing Your Fretboard

Every note, frets 0–16

Tap any position to hear its pitch and see its name. Use Root to light up every occurrence of a note across the neck — the fastest way to see the patterns repeat.

Find a C note on string 3.

Score 0 Streak 0

Tap the fret you think matches before time runs out.

Standard tuning (E A D G B E), 16 frets. Fret spacing is drawn to true scale-length proportions, so spacing narrows up the neck exactly as it does on a real guitar.
