Yes, guitar! I write the names on the appropriate piano keys for the guitar strings - E, A, D, G, B, E - and that is how they learn to tune their instrument. I use 'blank' paper keyboards with all my beginner piano, violin, voice and guitar students. My graphic designer cleaned up the keyboards a bit, and they print beautifully! Guitar players also need to understand the piano keyboard My newest printer, a very basic Canon model, doesn't have a lot of finesse with sizing, and I have found that I only get a good print copy now by going to my own book, Songs Old & Songs New, and using the keyboards found there. Even if I DO change settings, such as to 'fit to the page', I might still be clipping off the keyboard on either side. I may forget to change my printer settings, and end up with an unusable sheet. Printing in 'landscape mode', or horizontally, is always an opportunity for me to WASTE PAPER AND INK.

(As long as 'ghost images' don't remain behind!) One new key at a time You might also find it useful to laminate one of the online piano keyboards below, and allow your students to write on the keyboard with an erasable felt pen, to use the keyboard over and over. If you choose to print out this particular piano learning guide for your students (or yourself), I suggest laminating it, or using wide tape to cover the important parts of the page! INK IS SO EXPENSIVE, and we music teachers seem to need a lot of it.
