Keys โ Understanding the Keyboard
Every key on the piano has a note name. The white keys are the natural notes โ C D E F G A B โ and they repeat across the keyboard. The black keys are the sharps and flats. C is always to the left of the group of two black keys.
This is your Keys Packet page for the Key of C. Each number (1โ7) has a keyboard diagram showing which keys to press. The teal highlighted keys are the notes you play.
Guitar โ The Fretboard
Standard guitar tuning from lowest to highest string: E ยท A ยท D ยท G ยท B ยท e. Each fret raises the pitch by one half step. Your Guitar Packet shows chord diagrams for every number in every key.
This is your Guitar Packet page for the Key of G. The horizontal fretboard shows exactly where to place your fingers for each chord number. Teal dots = where your fingers go. ร = mute that string. โ = play open.
Bass โ Single Notes, Not Chords
Bass players play single notes โ the root of each chord number, or the note on the right side of a slash chord. Your Bass Packet shows a fretboard pattern for every key with numbers inside the dots so you always know what degree you're playing.
The number inside each teal dot is the scale degree. The root note (1) has a slightly larger dot with a ring around it. The pattern shows both 4-string and 5-string bass.
Drums โ Kit Components & Dynamics
Drums don't play pitched notes, but every component of the kit has a name and a specific role. Knowing these names helps you follow chart instructions and communicate clearly with the worship team.
Drummers at Wellspring use a five-level dynamic system tied to song sections. Dynamic markings on the chart tell you the energy level โ from soft and spacious (Level 1โ2) to full and driving (Level 4โ5).
