The invention makes explicit the note-locations-on-stringed-instruments of notated pitches. The method including the steps of marking a musical note or musical notes representing a particular pitch on the five-lined music staff or other form of graphic music notation system being used for said stringed instrument, marking a first numerical indicator on the musical note that indicates the location, along a string, on the stringed instrument, at which the at least one musical note is intended to be sounded from, and marking a second numerical indicator on the at least one musical note, appended to the first numerical indicator, that indicates which specific string of the stringed instrument on which the at least one musical note is intended to be sounded. Each first and second numerical indicator being marked together as a single, composite numerical indicator upon said musical note.
