DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0007] Fig. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a color sticker 200 for a C chord. Fig. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a color sticker 200 for a G chord. Fig. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing a color sticker 200 for an F chord. Fig. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing a musical score display medium 400.

[0008] The guitar playing assistance system AS is a system that assists in playing the guitar 100. In addition to playing the guitar 100, it can also be used for teaching and practicing the guitar 100. The guitar playing assistance system AS includes a plurality of colored stickers 200 and a musical score display medium 400.

[0009] A plurality of strings 110 are strung on a fingerboard 105 of the guitar 100. The plurality of strings 110 include, in order from thinnest to thinnest, a first string 111, a second string 112, a third string 113, a fourth string 114, a fifth string 115, and a sixth string 116.

[0010] A plurality of frets 120 are provided on the fingerboard 105 of the guitar 100. The plurality of frets 120 includes, in order from the side closest to the nut 107, a first fret 121, a second fret 122, a third fret 123, and a fourth fret .

[0011] The multiple colored stickers 200 in the guitar playing assistance system AS are markers provided on the fingerboard 105 of the guitar 100. The multiple colored stickers 200 are colored in different colors for each chord. The multiple colored stickers 200 indicate the finger positions on the fingerboard 105 for pressing the strings 110 for each chord. The colored stickers 200 are pieces of paper with adhesive on the back. The multiple colored stickers 200 include a colored sticker 210, a colored sticker 220, and a colored sticker 230.

[0012] As shown in Figure 1, three colored stickers 210 are markers on fingerboard 105 that indicate the finger positions for pressing string 110 when playing a C chord, which is one of the guitar chords. The three colored stickers 210 that indicate the C chord are red. A player can produce the sound of a C chord by plucking the first string 111 through the sixth string 116 with their right hand while pressing string 110 with the fingers of their left hand in the positions shown in Figure 1.

[0013] As shown in Figure 2, three colored stickers 220 are markers on fingerboard 105 that indicate the finger positions for pressing string 110 when playing a G chord, which is one of the guitar chords. The three colored stickers 220 that indicate the G chord are yellow. A player can produce the sound of a G chord by plucking the first string 111 through the sixth string 116 with their right hand while pressing string 110 with the fingers of their left hand in the positions shown in Figure 2.

[0014] As shown in Figure 3, four colored stickers 230 are markers on fingerboard 105 that indicate the finger positions for pressing strings 110 when playing an F chord, which is one type of guitar chord. The four colored stickers 230 that indicate the F chord are green. A player can produce the sound of an F chord by plucking strings 111 through 115 with their right hand without plucking string 6 116, while holding string 110 with the fingers of their left hand in the positions shown in Figure 3.

[0015] When color stickers 200 of different colors indicate the same finger position, the user can attach two or more color stickers 200 on top of each other while shifting them up, down, left, or right to the fingerboard 105. Also, when color stickers 200 of different colors indicate the same finger position, the user can attach one color sticker 200 painted in multiple colors to the fingerboard 105.

[0016] As shown in Fig. 4, the musical score display medium 400 of the guitar playing assistance system AS is a medium on which a plurality of colored marks 300 are arranged in the order of chord progressions. The musical score display medium 400 is an image display device provided in information devices such as personal computers, tablet terminals, and smartphones. The musical score display medium 400 may also be a printed medium such as a book, magazine, or flyer.

[0017] The plurality of color marks 300 on the musical score display medium 400 are designs having colors corresponding to the codes of the color stickers 200. The plurality of color marks 300 include a color mark 310, a color mark 320, and a color mark 330.

[0018] The color mark 310 is a red design, which is the color scheme of the color sticker 210 corresponding to the C code. The color mark 320 is a yellow design, which is the color scheme of the color sticker 220 corresponding to the G code. The color mark 330 is a green design, which is the color scheme of the color sticker 230 corresponding to the F code.

[0019] In the musical score display medium 400, numbers indicating the number of beats are arranged on a staff, and colored marks 210, 220, and 230 are arranged above the staff in correspondence with the positions of the numbers indicating the number of beats. In this way, in the musical score display medium 400, the order of chord progression is represented using the staff and the numbers indicating the number of beats. In other embodiments of the musical score display medium 400, the order of chord progression may be represented using arrows and consecutive numbers instead of the staff and the number of beats.

[0020] With the guitar playing assistance system AS described above, the player can intuitively play guitar 100 by pressing down with their fingers on strings 110 at the positions of color stickers 200 of the same color as color marks 300 in the order of their arrangement. Therefore, with this guitar playing assistance system AS, even a beginner can easily play guitar 100.

[0021] The technology disclosed in this specification is not limited to the above-described embodiments, examples, and modifications, and can be realized in various configurations without departing from the spirit thereof. For example, among the technical features of the above-described embodiments, examples, and modifications, those corresponding to the technical features of each form described in the Summary of the Invention column can be appropriately replaced and combined to solve some or all of the above-described problems or achieve some or all of the above-described effects. Furthermore, technical features not described as essential in this specification can be appropriately deleted.

[0022] For example, the color stickers 200 and color marks 300 may correspond to other chords such as an Am chord, an Em chord, a Dm chord, a Bm (flat 5) chord, and an E chord. Furthermore, although the guitar playing assistance system AS in the above-described embodiment is a system adapted to playing a six-string guitar, it can also be configured as a system adapted to playing a three-string guitar.
