How do I learn the notes on this fretboard?

Start with the open strings of Drop E (E-B-E-A-C#-F#), then learn one natural note at a time across all strings. The 12th fret repeats the open strings an octave higher, so the chart only needs frets 0 to 12.

Why does the same note appear on several strings?

Neighbouring strings overlap in range, so most pitches can be played in more than one place. Choose an octave in the note finder to see exactly which positions give the same pitch.

What is the range of this tuning?

From E1, the lowest open string, up to A4 at the 15th position of the highest string.
