The Bass Clef

While the treble clef is the most common, most bass instruments, instruments that have a lower-pitched sound, are usually written in the bass clef

The lines on the bass clef staff correspond to the letters G B D F A, and can be remembered with the saying Good Boy Deserves Fudge Always.

The spaces on the bass cleff staff correspond to the letters A C E G, and can be easily remembered by saying the phrase All Cows Eat Grass.

To find a note above the staff, simply move in alphabetical order counting lines and spaces.

The same processes applies for notes below the staff, just move backwards alphabetically counting lines and spaces.
