Learning the fretboard

[Zardoz]

I found two interesting free programs for guitarist that aid in ear training and fret board note memorization that I wanted to pass along. I’ve been playing around with them when my fingers get to sore to play. The tools won’t be much use to anyone but us beginners.

Fret board warrior and chord warrior www.fretboardwarrior.com

Also, I’m trying to get my mind around some of the theory behind scales and worked out a graphical view of the minor pentatonic scale. I hope it’s correct. Does anyone have tab that would help me waddle up and down the fret board using the entire blues, pentatonic or major scales from nut to fret 12 and back again?

Thank you,

Zardoz

Thanks for this contribution.
It looks right at first glance, but I will look more into it a little later.
Welcome to the forums!

Here's another link for fretboard patterns:

Thanks Grant

I wish I would have run into that automated scale/chord generator site a few days ago. Very nice!
