If you look at this image, these are the notes on the low-E string of a guitar...look how it skips B# and goes right to C....I do not understand! Where is B sharp? Why is it allowed to skip it and go right to C?

@XenonRush B sharp is the same thing as C and C flat is the same thing as B. I know it does not seem to make sense but that's really how it works. When you go from C to C#/Db, that is a half step. Another half step going up from C#/Db to D. And so on. BUT... when you go from B to C or E to F, that's only a half step so there is no flat or sharp in between.

I know you said you play piano but do you know...if I play the open low-E string and then the open high-E string, are those two Es a octave apart from each other?

Depends. They just go on over and over again. If you were talking about a specific octave, the answer would be clear.

Kind of a trick question. They just keep going round and round in a circle so...

Depends on which octave on the scale. G would be if they are in sequence.

It's all relative. The series repeats: ABCDEFGABC...etc.
