fretboard_cli
This is a simple command line program I've made to help me learn the notes on the guitar fretboard, though it works for any fretted instrument.
Usage
fretboard_cli only has two options, one to specify your instrument's tuning
(-t
or --tuning
), and one to specify your instrument's fret count (-f
or
--frets
).
<>
denotes optional flags
()
denotes required arguments to flags
fretboard_cli <-f/--frets> (positive integer) <-t/--tuning> (note names)
Simply running
fretboard_cli
is equivalent to
fretboard_cli -f 22 -t E A D G B E
The tuning argument can also be used to specify the string count. Here's a 7 string guitar!
fretboard_cli -t B E A D G B E
and a bass!
fretboard_cli -t E A D G
Input
After running the program you will be repeatedly asked to enter the name of the
note on a specific string at a specific fret. You can also exit the program by
typing the word exit
into the terminal at any point. Here's what that might
look like. Lines starting with //
are comments inserted to clarify what's
going on.
What is the note at the 12th fret of the B string?
B
Correct!
What is the note at the 20th fret of the A string?
A
//if you get an answer wrong you get to try again and again!
Incorrect!
F
Correct!
What is the note at the 11th fret of the D string?
//you can even use sharps and flats!
Db
Correct!
What is the note at the 17th fret of the E string?
//maybe don't do it like this though
E#####
Correct!
What is the note at the 7th fret of the E string?
//can't really blame you for wanting to leave after that last answer
exit
