MusicLover20015 Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 If there is a flat which is an accidental so lets say in the key which has one flat which 1 flat and then theres a Cb for the rest of the bar is the 'C' Flat so if i had C C Cb Cb C C would the first 2 be natural C's (Normal) and the rest Would be flats untill end of bar or a natural sign ? Also what note is 3 stave lines up on bass cleff from the top, im pretty sure its an E but any confirmation would help Thakns Quote

If so, i'd take the two following C's as C's. Although they really should have a natural sign if they are. I have seen this sort of thing written out before but its not common ime. The 3rd ledger line is a G. 12th fret on your high G string. 2nd ledger line is an E Quote

So i mean i supposed it was going to carry on flat untill the end of the bar Quote
uncle psychosis Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 The "normal" convention is that an accidental is only cancelled by a natural sign or the end of the bar. Quote
