I meant the strings.

And theoretically you could get every note on one string. :P

The fingerings just like a wind instrument has become relatively standardized because one sounds better than the other.

God this is OT...

And theoretically you could get every note on one string. :P

you actually can. just walk up the fret board and you will hit every note with only one string by the 12th fret

Oh I know... it's just at some point the steps are too small and a human couldn't pluck the string.

I encounter this type of funky stuff on my trumpet. In the upper register you really don't need to do any fingerings and it's all lip. Some fingerings make it easier though.

Idiot morons should not make comment if they know not of which they speak!

Belinos did a fine job with his expanation and I will take it a step further.

If you start on the A string and keep going up every fret until you reach the octave you will complete the entire musical scale. duh!

Last I remembered, the piano/keyboard the very first thing you would learn would be middle C and everything would go from there. I don't ever recall starting at A.

[vortextwist]

no but the musical alphabet is ABCDEFG, does not mean you start with A.

[Jedi Belinos]

The A natural minor scale starts on A and plays ABCDEFGA. lol. Also the A chromatic scale starts on A and ends on A with every note in between. I could do indepth on this but don't want to derail this anymore lol.

BTW for those that don't know I am a music education major in just a few more semesters I will be out teaching kids how to play a band instrument. So qualifications on this I have plenty.
