Notes

[player***]

Thanks.as long as we(everyone) can realize in musicdom both scales and chords use A - G...and none are repeated.alternatively with chords I believe C major is the only one that does not use flats or sharps in it and here again none are repetitive unless you include the octave.
even b's and #'s used don't repeat.they do though fall in line with the A through G
just building block basics to make scales and/or chords.
take note aspiring or beginning guitarists.the rule IS written in stone. or izzat theory?
any way it's sliced it works.

I was looking at the posts and I noticed something that can often
trip people/beginners up... so I'll try and clarify below.

The thing is that you have to remember that the
whole steps and half steps refer to the spaces
''between'' notes and not the notes themselves.

So if we start with C, the first space is a whole
step so we end up on D.

From there, we need another space, which is a
whole step to E.

Notice we've got 3 notes, but only 2 spaces in
between so far!

So at this point we've only used

WS-WS

from the whole formula of:

WS-WS-HS-WS-WS-WS-HS
(WS - whole step, HS - half step)

So far we have:

C D E and we've used WS-WS so far so the
next thing is a HS.

Going up from E a half-step we get F.

From there, up a whole-step gives us G, another
whole-step gives us A, another whole-step gives
us B, and the last half-step gets us back to C.

Notice that the last half-step Always gets you
back at where you started (just up one octave.)

If you don't end on the same note you started on,
you've done something wrong - so that's a good
way to check also.

it is still important to do like the first post.all six strings.not bad exercise either.
