🔑 Key Landmarks

Memorize the 5th and 12th frets first. The 12th fret is the octave (same note as open string).

🔄 Octave Shapes

Find the same note 2 strings down and 2 frets up (e.g., 3rd fret E string = 5th fret D string).

📝 Natural Notes

Focus on natural notes (A, B, C...) first. Sharps and flats fall in between them.
