Well, I finally realized something: Learning the A minor pentatonic scale with the notes lead me to a very quick learning where the notes are on the 5 boxes. It took me 2 weeks, but the secret I discovered "on my own" of course I'm laughing now, was to learn the notes in box one, then learn the 5 positions and then figure out the notes on the fretboard in all 5 positions. It took me all but 10 minutes to learn the positions of the notes. Wow. Thanks Robert, your advice when I joined up is being listened too. 😀 I was sweating it for the last 2 weeks.
That's a great idea, Joe; I'm going to try it. I've also been using Robert's course on learning the notes but I'm inconsistent and only have done A, E, and D so far. I'm getting pretty fast with A and E. Applying octave patterns helps, too.
