The first string (top string on the diagram to the left) is an "E" string, as is the sixth string (bottom string on the diagram). It's called the "E" string because that's the note when you play the string open (not holding down the string).
The second string is the "B" string. The third string is the "G" string. The fourth string is the "D" string, and the fifth is the "A" string. "O" indicates open string (not held down). "1" indicates hold down string on first fret; "2" indicates hold down string on second fret, etc. So on the "G" string, "7D" indicates hold down the string on the seventh fret, get a "D" note. Notes are colored by octave. |
