Withdrawn. I thought the topic would be boring but it appears that thought was extremely optimistic.

Even after you've withdrawn it it's as interesting a topic as many on the Forum.  |

I’ve been known to play the E9 neck with one hand tied behind me while playing the C6 neck with my teeth. Stay thirsty my friend

Withdrawn... pale... gaunt... emaciated... distant... catatonic...
there's gotta be a tune in there somewhere....
What would be a satisfactory antonym for "withdrawn"?

So that's what it was all about.
You won't get back on-topic now, though. |

Thanks Ray. You're a class act yourself. Maybe I'll wear my tux today in your honor.
Merry Christmas. |

The U.S. is the only industrialized nation that does not mainly use the metric system in its commercial and standards activities.
So that leaves us with the US customary measurement system and to stay within that system with a chromatic musical scale of 12 notes compared to a number system that continues within units of 10 forces a ratio of 10/12.
This is not unlike choosing a ratio for a metric conversion except the musical 12 scale fits a little better.
This means that each note of the scale through however many octaves will each have a specific easily recognizable value due to the octaves increasing by the powers of 10.
It follows that chords can have a specific value recognized by the sum of the given notes. |

It sounds great! Just me, my steel guitar, a notepad, my rusty old Slide Rule, BIAB and unlimited possibilities.
Ray you invented class. Do you think this might work well for the folks that play non-pedal Hawaiian on some remote Island, don’t have BIAB or a computer if the State Department would mail them each a slide Rule? |

Great idea. Instead of doing all those complex calculations and measurements, next time I build a fretboard I'll just divide the string length by 100, and put frets at every 10th interval. Saves a lot of work. 
Come to think of it, if I make the string length a metre I can just glue a tape measure to the body of the instrument.  |
