I guess it's not surprising that the fret settings of the 1st and 6th
course are close since they're supposed to be a double diapason (2
octaves) apart.
Well, it is indeed quite obvious and that's why I did it like this in the
first place. I would imagine the 9th course (C or D, whichever it was) would
hardly be fingered, if not at all, beyond the 2nd fret.
> It would be of great interest to do this sort of analysis for each course
so as to see the how the different chromatic/diatonic semitone relationships
between all the courses are dealt with (or not); have you done this by any
chance and if so cld you kindly give the results?
No, I didn't. I might try this later if I manage to print fretboard layout
from the PDF file of the Palmer plan.
