Look at the guitar’s fingerboard (the top of the neck; refer to Figures 2-3 and 2-4) and you see a gridlike structure of strings and frets (short metal wires underneath the strings, running perpendicular to them). Frets are like the black and white keys of the piano: They provide all the different pitches available on the guitar in half-step increments. Good guitar players, who “know the fingerboard,” can identify any string/fret location by its pitch (note name), no matter where it falls. The better guitar player you become the more you’re able to look at the neck and quickly see notes and patterns.
