5. The isomorphic patterns of the 1st (0-3 frets) and 3rd (7-10 frets ) fret-board neighborhoods.


The isomorphic patterns of the  1st (0-3 frets) and 3rd (7-10 frets ) fret-board neighborhoods ,  is good to help you learn all the notes of the C major scale of the fretboard. But before that, it is easier and more helpful  to know all the possible position in shapes of D, A and E of the chords of the C major scale of the fret-board.

The 1st guitar fretboard neighborhood is of course the next




Here is the first part of the 3rd guitar  neighborhood (7-13 frets according to post 13) of the guitar to learn as notes without # or b. Notice that starting from the 5th string and from the fret 7, the fretboard notes is identical to that of the area of open chords, when starting from the 6th string. In other words it is a mirror and identical image of the notes of the fetboard on the 6th, 5th,4th,3rd, 2nd and between frets 0-4, only that now it is strings 5th,4th,3rd, 2nd,1st, taking in to account the shift at the  2nd string, and between frets 7 and 10. 







Notice that the previous pattern of the diatonic scale starting from B , is as if they are used all strings at frets 7 ,8 and 10, except at 8th fret and 4th and 3rd  string we have a shift by one semitone to higher and at the 7 fret 2nd string a note is missing. It is an easy to remember pattern.

From the full 3rd guitar neighborhood (frets 7-13 ) is the next 














The second part of the 3rd guitar fretboard neighborhood (see post 13 ) can be considered the frets 9-13 that is the next
(Notice that this pattern of the diatonic scale starting from D , is such that all are strings at frets 10, 12 are used, and additional at 9th fret one semitone lower at strings 4th, 3rd and  one semitone higher at strings 6th 2nd, 1ist. It is an easy to remember pattern )





There is of course still another such isomorphic image of the C major scale notes of the 0-3 frets and some of those between the frets 14-19 of the guitar fretboard as it can be seen in the next image.
