Hi Micah - Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks! I am already pretty good at reading tabs, but I thought this was for reading actual notes. Nice anyways!

Check out this Guitar Note Chart here. See if that helps.

The guy is asking what notes on sheet music correspond to what fingerings and strings.

Hi Nephets,

We also have a printable guitar chord chart that shows where to put your fingers for dozens of chords. Our slideshow Easy Guitar Chords also has pictures of people fingering chords as well as written directions for a number of simpler chords. Hope this info helps. :)

Hi Nephets - Try this article out http://guitar.lovetoknow.com/Guitar_Chord_Charts. Hopefully that helps you more. Thanks for visiting!

alright this helps some, but how do I know what strings to pick, and what frets to hold to play different notes? I want to see that E=string x fret y so I know what to do

Hi Vlad. The key tells you what notes are in the major scale for that key. For example, a song in the key of G would start on a G and would use the notes G-A-B-C-D-E-F#-G. You could play other types of scales (minor, for example) in the key of G as well, but the notes will all be in relation to the key signature of the song. Check out the link "circle of fifths" in this article for more information.

That's helpful. But I still don't understand how the key determines the scale. Is it just what scales the chords fit in or what?
