Below are a variety of printable blank fretboard diagrams you can use to mark on your own chords, scales or whatever. I've made them light enough so your marks will show clearly.
Create your own shapes, patterns, exercises and set yourself challenges, such as note and interval memorization.
Below each diagram is a link to a printable PDF file.
Remember, if you need a diagram that isn't featured here, you can request it in the comments section at the bottom of this page.
