How to find your notes on the guitar , reading music question?

Mike asked:


For example - I have a program called guitar pro and I have found out that there are two middle C's ( on the C and the A string and the C on the low E string )appear to share the same space on the staff , when reading a piece of music how do you know witch C in this case do you use , and how could you tell ?

    well those to notes are exactly the same pitch so it actually doesnt matter.

    They are both middle C

    However in actuality the note middle C on a piano is actually the same pitch as C played on the first fret of the B string

    Middle C written for guitar is one octave lower than middle C written for piano

    You can’t, and that’s why I prefer tabs. Different strings have different tones for the same note. The only way you can really tell would be if there was a full chord, for example if it read CGCEGC you’d have a C chord at the 8th fret, but if it read CEGCE you’ve got an open C chord… and even then, you could be holding the chord differently.

    Dirty, I know.
