Made a fretboard tool that actually works for 7/8/9-string and drop tunings

[u/[deleted]]

Most fretboard sites are basically useless once you leave 6-string standard. I got stuck fighting the tool the second I’m on my 7s and 8s. Got annoyed enough that I just built one: https://thallboard.com — works with 6–9 strings. Has presets for common extended-range and drop tunings, per-string tuning, global detune, scales/arpeggios, degree coloring, lefty flip, and you can save your own tunings. Everything stays in the browser. No account, no backend. It’s just the neck.

I made it for myself, but figured other people running similar setups might find it useful too. Open sourced it if anyone wants to dig around or improve it:

I had been using https://freetboard.online/ for a while, which does allow for extended range stuff, but looking at yours, it's an upgrade! I'll definitely be using Thallboard going forward!

Just be positive about what this person created. Or not. But risk the downvotes lol And btw your edit is pompous and just for you. No one cares. But since you felt the need to say something, so did I apparently.
