NOTE: The five Major keys in the Essential Editions are identical copies of the corresponding Major key pages in the Complete Editions. The colored circles added to the Essential Editions help people see the notes that build the six main Major & minor chords that make up each of those keys. The colored circles also help see where those notes are found on the fretboard.
