The Cage System Visualizing the Guitar Neck Study 1. The Cage System is a way to visualize the fret board. By interlocking smaller scale patterns, the Cage System is a way to see the entire fretboard as one large scale. The Cage System and the 3 note/string method are the two most popular methods to achieve this.
