    For instance, if a piano piece had a C major triad in the right hand (C–E–G), with the bass note a G with the left hand, this would be a second inversion C major chord, which would be written G 6 4. If this same C major triad had an E in the bass, it would be a first inversion chord, which would be written E 6

  6. Enharmonic equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enharmonic_equivalence

    A musical passage notated as flats. The same passage notated as sharps, requiring fewer canceling natural signs. Sets of notes that involve pitch relationships — scales, key signatures, or intervals, [1] for example — can also be referred to as enharmonic (e.g., the keys of C ♯ major and D ♭ major contain identical pitches and are therefore enharmonic).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_guitar_tuning

    Tuning machines (with spiral metal worm gears) are mounted on the back of the headstock on the bass guitar neck. The standard design for the electric bass guitar has four strings, tuned E, A, D and G, in fourths such that the open highest string, G, is an eleventh (an octave and a fourth) below middle C, making the tuning of all four strings the same as that of the double bass (E 1 –A 1 –D ...

    For instance, the notation C/E bass indicates a C major triad in first inversion i.e. a C major triad with an E in the bass. Likewise the notation C/G bass indicates that a C major chord with a G in the bass (second inversion). See figured bass for alternate method of notating specific notes in the bass.

  9. Letter notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_notation

    The bass note may be specified after a /, for example C/G is a C major chord with a G bass. Where a capo is indicated, there is little standardisation. For example, after capo 3 , most music sheets will write A to indicate a C chord, that is, they give the chord shape rather than its pitch, but some specify it as C, others give two lines ...
