In the beginning, bottom to top,this treble feature is found.
Add another letter to see it from a different aspect.
After that is a promise to pay, informally. IOU (J and Y)
The end, you'll see, is cleverly concealed in a manner to avoid notice.
But all together, don't take it too seriously, but I have an interesting inherent alphabetical order.
All I can come up with is "scale" or "clef" or "promissory note."

In the beginning, bottom to top,this treble feature is found. (Clef)
Add another letter to see it from a different aspect. (Face - swapped l for a and rearranged Face = aspect)
After that is a promise to pay, informally. IOU (J and Y)
The end, you'll see, is cleverly concealed in a manner to avoid notice. (Facetious?)
Sounds good.
Great to have you here.
Stop by Riddles often. Don't leave me alone with these people!

This is close. However, answers to individual clues are wrong, so it is quite coincidentaly close.
Yes Jon vowels have something to do with the answer (particularly the last clue)

Well Im going to give it up, seeing as how it is so close anyway, but I wanted to show how the clues fit together anyway. (Amazing how the almost correct answer came out without getting the clues right.
