How to Use the Music Notes to Guitar Fretboard Mapping

This tool allows you to view how music notes on a staff map to specific positions on a guitar fretboard. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use it:

• Step 1: The musical staff shows various notes represented on a five-line staff. These notes include C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and their respective octaves, along with their solfège names (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti).
• Step 2: Click on a note on the staff (for example, the note "C4"). When you click on a note, it will highlight on the staff and the corresponding position(s) on the guitar fretboard will be highlighted.
• Step 3: The guitar fretboard now shows the six strings of a guitar, with frets numbered 1 to 24. When you select a note, the fret(s) where that note can be played will be highlighted in yellow. The open strings (fret 0) are also labeled with their note names, and a yellow bar will appear below the open string label if the selected note matches the open string.
• Step 4: The fretboard is interactive. You can select multiple notes to see their locations across different strings and frets on the guitar.

This tool is ideal for guitar learners who want to improve their note recognition and understanding of the extended fretboard mapping. It allows you to visually see the relationship between sheet music and the guitar fretboard across a wider range of frets.
