[musictlk] braille frette chart .

[Robert j]

 If you get creative you can make your own frette chart with  a brailler.
Just make
I drew 7 lines so 2 lines apart and then turned the paper the other
direction and made lines going the opposite direction to indicate the frets
and then turned it back and put in the letters.
That's the best I can describe it. You will just have to figure it out from
there.
Does any one provide a simple Braille frette chart?
That cam be ordered?
Robert

I taught a lot of guitar.
I caused my students to draw themselves a fret-board, as it were; six
strings.
of course string one and 6 and e strings two octaves apart.
Then we would put in the names of the notes, F on fret 1.  G fret 3.
On the second string we'd write B and C and D.
I don't know. it worked for me.
I'm sure there are better ways.
Pen.
