The Left-Handed Guitar Fingerboard- Finding the Notes
The Left Handed Guitar Fingerboard
The Left Handed Guitar Fingerboard
Some years ago, I published an article on HubPages called "Learning All the Notes on the Guitar Fingerboard". The article includes a chart of the fingerboard, but only for a right handed guitar. It also provides an efficient and reliable method of learning the fingerboard.
Recently, I have started teaching my grandchildren to play guitar. One of them is left handed. As a beginner, there is much to learn: left hand fingering, right hand fingering, note names, string numbers, fret numbers. You do not need the extra complication of having to mentally reverse diagrams and instructions. So, I have redrawn the fingerboard for the left handed player.
You have probably found this article by searching on-line for resources for left handed guitarists. If so, please read the original article, but in conjunction with the above fingerboard diagram, which should match the strings and tuning of your left handed guitar.
Happy learning!
