Shape → names
Place fingers on the neck
Tap one fret per sounding string. Tap the selected fret again to mute that string.
Save two shapes here to compare their string-by-string voice leading below.
Explore the instrument
Map the neck, inspect a chord shape, find playable voicings, and connect harmony to an explicitly declared musical context.
Fretboard explorer
Use the compact overview to orient yourself, then move across one continuous fretboard. Nothing is wrapped into artificial chunks.
Chord laboratory
Place a shape to learn what it contains, or enter a symbol to enumerate complete voicings inside honest physical limits.

Tap one fret per sounding string. Tap the selected fret again to mute that string.
Save two shapes here to compare their string-by-string voice leading below.
Symbol → voicings
Fret sequences run from S1 toward the last string (highest→lowest); x means muted. A search covers at most 12 positions above the capo. Open strings do not inflate the fretted-note span.
Harmony connections
Compare chord spellings, trace real string voices between two shapes, or map a triad through every adjacent three-string set.
Symbol ↔ symbol
Pitch-set, written-bass, and strict-symbol equivalence are reported separately.
Shape A → shape B
Use the direct shape editor above. The same string is the same voice; muted and newly sounding strings are never paired by guesswork.
Triad → string sets
Fret sequences run from the highest string toward lower strings (for example, S1→S3). Each result uses three adjacent strings and contains every chord tone exactly once. The search covers at most 12 positions above the capo.
Declared-key theory
Spell and harmonize a scale you choose, then translate progressions only after you declare the key that gives their degrees meaning.
