What can I use blank fretboard diagrams for?

Mapping a scale across the neck, marking every place a note appears, drawing CAGED shapes, or planning a solo.

How do I print it at the right size?

Open the PDF and print at 100% or "Actual size", not "Fit to page", so the lines and boxes keep their spacing. It is designed for US Letter and also prints fine on A4.
