Actually it is FACE for the spaces on the treble clef, & the Brit version of the lines is Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, used as an album title by the Moody Blues; the bass clef (my domain
) is Good Boys Do Fine Always for the lines & All Cows Eat Grass (or All Cars Eat Gas) for the spaces.
Back when I started to learn electronics, when the microchip was a newly emerging technology, all resistors' & many other components' values were designated by a color code; you've seen them if you ever looked into a radio, tv, amp, or other gadgets. little cylindrical objects with rainbow color stripes; 1st two stripes represent a number, 3rd stripe tells the # of zeros to put after them, or something like that...anyway the color code is
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Black brown red orange yellow green blue violet gray white
& the mnemonic for the color sequence is
Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls, But Violet Gives Willingly
yeh, I know, electrical engineers are a sexist lot, always going on about male & female connectors & stuff
