Where are all the flats located on the guitar?

Question

I am learning how to play the guitar. I understand all the sharps and everything else, but i don't know where all the flats are supposed to be. The flats I need to know are: B, E, A, D, G, C and where they are located on the frets of the guitar. Thanks.

Answer 1

flats and sharps are relative to the whole notes. a Bflat is the same as an A sharp...and Eflat is the same as a Dsharp, etc. any note can be sharp or flat, it all depends on the note youre starting with. Sometimes in music, youll even see things like Bflat flat...which is the note just flat of Bflat, or in other words, an A...
