    This document provides a 7-step process for memorizing the guitar fretboard using diagrams and drills. The steps start with memorizing the notes ABCD in horizontal and vertical positions, then expanding to ABCDEFG in those positions, followed by improvising with those notes freely. Later steps cover locating all 12 notes horizontally and vertically on the fretboard. Extra practice is recommended finding individual notes anywhere on the fretboard.
