Thanks

First, you should know that the note order is the same for every string. The order doesn't change, only the starting point, which is the open string note of each string (E-A-D-G-B-E).

I'd start by learning the 6th string (thickest) and then you know the 1st string (the high E) by default, since it's also an open E.

From there, I'd grab the 5th string (open A).

Once you know the bottom two strings you'll be able to easily identify root notes and then the last three strings will be much easier.

Hope this helps!
