Alternate Fingering Style

• The idea behind this style of notation is that learners use string names, then fret (or fingering) numbers with those strings.

• Beginner string players use this method quite commonly

• So.....'A' would mean play the A string and 'A3' would mean put a finger in the third fret/ space of the A string (Where the 'C' chord would live!?)

• When the note letters are close together it implies that you play the two notes together quicker (like quavers in standard notation)

• Give it a go and let me know what you think?
