I really like this idea @Carl. Using the guitar strings would replace my mnemonic. But, we have to do 2 things to make if complete. First, we have to see it like a circle. So we can start at B, and go to E, then circle back around, and go to A, then D, then G. Those are the flats in order.
But that brings us to the 2nd thing. We have to realize there are 2 more notes. We are missing the C and the F when using the guitar strings. That’s not a big deal as the C is our reference with no accidentals. How do we go from a C to a G for the sharps? Easy, if we substitute the B string for the C, we go up to the G, then D, then A, then E, and circle around, the high E goes up to the B. Now, we just have to remember F always comes after (or before depending on the direction, 5ths or 4ths) the B.
