    Here's a guitar fingerboard chart with all the notes including sharps and flats for anyone who thinks they might find it useful. I have software now that I do all of this on but for years I kept a binder full of these charts. I used them as work sheets when I was looking for a new way to voice a chord or trying to visualize something that I had seen in a chart and didn't really understand. I found it really useful to have something that I could see clearly and that I could mark up and mark notes on. I found a lot of cool chords and alternative voicings on those charts.

    About 30 years ago I made one of those to help me figure out the trumpet. Instead of note names and enharmonic names, each string/fret coordinate had three hollow circles in a row. I spent a couple nights playing the horn and filling in the valve state holes on the chart corresponding to the pitches on the guitar. Any line I might imagine playing on the guitar could be translated into a series of valve states, slowly, and almost literally "paint by numbers", but lots of fun. Did not matter that the horn was a transposing instrument.
