About this tool
This page opens the fingering chart with C Major already selected — the diagram above is live, so you can inspect every position. The notes of the scale: C, D, E, F, G, A, B.
The major scale is the reference point of Western music: bright, stable, and the pattern every other scale is compared against. Learning its fingering early pays off in every key.
Switch the key, scale type or display options in the controls above — the chart redraws instantly and everything runs locally in your browser.
Example. C major in a one-finger-per-fret position places the scale's pitch classes on frets 0 through 12 of an EADGBE board.
Limit. The diagram stops at fret 12, and position numbers stop at 9.
