m reading bass clef notes that have enough ledger lines to make me want to go to the eye doctor for a prescription change (and a stigmatism checkup), then we have on our hands what I had previously termed as a score with a lack of common sense.
No particular landmarks are stressed; the only ledger line note is middle C in treble staff: "Cross the River" matches musical symbols with their names.
This tuning allows the guitar''s whole range to be represented on the treble clef, albeit with three ledger lines for the lowest notes.
