| Any ideas where I might find a note diagram of a 6 String C-6 neck (low to high CEGACE)? I had one from an very old Hawaiian music book for low Hawaian A and it was helpful in teaching myself the notes. |

Jerry Byrd has a course that has that and a lot more, or you could just make your own counting up chromatically: C, C#/Db, D, D#/Eb, F, F#/Gb, G, G#/Ab, A, A#/Bb, B, C.
Each one of those is a fret from open string to the 12th fret. |

Here's a handy little free program that will give you chords or notes for any 6-string tuning: http://home.earthlink.net/~bquade/AlternateTuning.html
You can download it and use it off line. Simply change the tuning to C6th, then highlight everything under "include notes".[This message was edited by Andy Volk on 27 November 2001 at 05:00 AM.] |

It seems to me Brad B. had a similar type of chart on his website at one time, which used an Excel file to produce the chart... I can't seem to find it now

Andy, Thank you for posting the site for the Alternative Tuning Chord and Scale Finder. What a great program! I saved it to my Desktop. I'll be using that program a lot.

I am developing an excel based program that will show any combination of notes on your guitar that you want to study (chords or scales) in a multi-color format. Also you can easily switch between letters or numbers mode and program your own pedal set-ups. Just click buttons to activate pedals or knees and the notes are instantly updated. Also includes an extensive listing of chord and scale formulas. If you want a preliminary copy to play with, e-mail me and I'll send you one. You'll need an Excel 97 or later version.

And here's another goood chord/scale page. Just click on user-defined and scroll for all the tunings. For some reason it only shows 7 of an 8 strings tuning's strings, but other than that a really helpful engine, good graphics. http://www.power-chord.com/gaff/mapper/

thank you all for the links.
just the sort of help I needed too.
This is definitely one of the best resources on the internet.
Much obliged to you for making my periodic wrestling matches with my steels that little bit easier.

I recall a site a while back that allowed you to enter the tuning you use, the scale (or chord) you're looking for, and then it showed the layout over a fretboard. I can't seem to locate the durn thing, and it would be very useful as a teaching tool. Anyone remember this site?

I'm not trying to come off like I know anything that anyone else can't learn, but...
I always found that the best way to learn any tuning, backwards and forwards, is to break it down to its fundamental components.
On TAB sheet, write down what the intervals are between each sting. G to A, well... it's a major 2nd. A to C, it's a minor third, C to E, it's a major third.
Then look at the intervalic distance between 3 stings, and then 4 stings.
Use your basic chord theory to then know what chord partials are avaiable to you up and down the neck. With adjacent strings, skip 1 string, skip 2 strings.
Write it down.
Good luck and work hard for it if you really want it!
