5-4 · Memorize the Fretboard: G

Now the G notes. With E, A, D, and B already mapped, this short lesson anchors the handy G positions — 3rd fret of both E strings, 8th fret of the B string, the open G, and the 5th fret of the D string — then uses octave shapes to reach the rest, remembering that the neck repeats above the 12th fret. Keep rotating through your by-string, nut-to-bridge, and random-position drills to stay challenged.
