Find Every C
The same note in seven places across three octaves.
How to play it
- Find each C where the cue says, switching octave on almost every note.
- Before each move, picture where the next C is. Use octave shapes: two strings and two frets up.
- Repeat with another note on your own once this one is automatic.
What the coach checks: Pitch and octave of each note.

Find each note
Single-note pitch feedback. Practice waits for each note; Play checks the sequence at your chosen tempo. This does not assess chord quality or fret buzz.
This checkpoint needs 72 BPM or faster and the required accuracy. Slower Play attempts still produce practice scores.

Why this drill
Players who know the neck see one note in all its places at once. Once you can find every C, every chord and scale built on C has more than one home.
