Frets

Fret Positions, measured in term of distance from the bridge, for both the Equal-Tempered and the Just scales. The equal-tempered scale has equal intervals (frequency ratios) between notes (including accidentals) ; the just scale has simple integer ratios between the frequencies of the various notes.
