Mitchell dexterMitchell dexter: This book to me is worth a million dollars! I honestly didn’t think that the claim could possibly be true, but the author breaks it down in such a simple and straight forward way that it’s impossible not to pick it all up. If you want to learn the fretboard this is the book you should start with!!!! Highly recommended!!!!

Torkerz: This book does a great job at helping you understand the fret part better, with some simple hints and tips at how to locate each note on the guitar.
In the back there are some exercises you can do to help your note location.
Overall the book is great however the format seems too simple in places and the games in the back can be hard to follow. I assure you, you will need longer than 24 hours to full memorise the fretboard, but this book does help.
Good purchase overall, but lacking in places to get 5 stars

Joe: It might take 24 hours if you know a lot going in, otherwise it will take longer but the promised knowledge is there. Memorize EADGBE, then A a# b c c# d d# e f f# g g#. The 1st is standard tuning on your guitar, the second Is the 12 natural notes of music. This book will show you how to use them to predict every note on the fret board, and it will help you understand octaves.

Landon Beaulieu: This book teaches you how to memorize the fretboard in way less than 24 hours, it took me 9 minutes and I can easily play each fret and call out the note for each one accurately.
You only need to get to page 17 of the book and the light bulb should go on for you, from there it's just bonus material to further hone your ability to connect the dots and turn the newfound knowledge of the notes on the fretboard into music.
When I say I memorized each note, I mean each and every note on every fret available on my guitar including sharp or flat semitones. I found the semitones most daunting before I read and understood this type of basic music theory.
If you are new to playing guitar, this is helpful, it's a different perspective on the frets and each note that you won't find on youtube, I've watched thousands of videos and never heard anyone mention this method.
Do yourself a favor if you are brand new to playing guitar, get yourself a chromatic tuner that attaches to your guitar, try to get one that can identify sharp / flat semitones this way you can get visual feedback while you are playing each note, this way you can confirm each note while you are...

ATP: First I would like to say that I rarely write reviews, however that being said I believe that when something is worthy of recognition and useful to its audience by aiding others such as myself then it deserves a positive review and then some.
I have been playing guitar for 40 years repeating most of the same bad habits and errors and same old chords and riffs reworked every which way I knew how and always feeling a little lost as to what I was really playing and while I could hear proper progressions in my head I would be fumbling all over the fret board finding those notes and being most unsatisfied losing the melody in the process and then being accepting of my limitations just would move on repeating all over again. TILL NOW!
In the last year I also began playing piano and because of it's linear layout it made it much clearer to understand music but guitar was still a mess of confusion being that the fret board is by no means clearly logical at first glance as a piano layout is. So I ordered this book expecting no more than the many other books I attempted to learn from over the years and at best hoped for a droplet or two of new knowledge. Much to my surprise within only...
