Here is a diagram of the mandolin fretboard with the accompying notes on the staff. The formatting is not perfect but it prints out quite nicely.
I think you'll find this layout easy to follow. I hope that some will find it useful.

My daughter did this for me. Kids can be very useful.
And if anyone's interested here is the same layout for the guitar!

So this is what we came up with.
Thanks to Windsor from Montreal!
Thank you very much.. :)
Kudos to your daughter. Thanks for sharing!
Can she do one for a Mandocello?:whistling:
Is your Godin a burst or natural finished like mine?
I have put together a course that not only shows you were the notes are but includes a series of timed exercises that make you locate each note one each string. Some of you may be old enough to remember flash cards as a method to practice, and improve your arithmetic skills. https://youtu.be/c0rwPsOnWjM
Your a lucky man Wayne!
Ha ha notes. What are those?
Notes are what surround those supernaturals you're looking for.:)Quote:

Related thing I found in a very old tune book. Shows the ranges of the mandolin type instruments.
Some of those old tune books had a chart very similar to the one Wayne's daughter prepared. Often in the inside front cover. Kind of like "here you go, now you can play anything."
Depends on your device. Using a mouse? Right click the image & choose to save or download the photo. No? Then search Google how to save photos to your specific device.Quote:

Many thanks R/
Agreed, the images are not very good resolution. Check out the different downloads available in this thread: https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/t...otation-to-TAB
Also, perhaps this image from another thread may be helpful:

If you need a clearer fretboard map, I have a few on my site here - https://mattcbruno.com/fretboard-maps/
Aside from the whole tone and the full chart, the post includes the Major scales for C, G, D, E, and A with the arpeggio notes highlighted.
