How do you use a shape like this?
The answer depends on harmony and is not that obvious for many
Natural minor scale,/dorian mode/c major scale/mixolydian mode/locrian mode
Can anyone make a video using this pattern and how to apply? Thank you and much appreciated 👍
... Anyway I preferably use this pattern as a Dorian mode
Choose your root first... 😝
A / F#m
C / Am and my favorite G / Em
Just play what you feel.

Voodoo Blues Scale
Teachers creating interesting lessons by mapping uncommon scales with guitarLayers 😉En esta lección te quiero hablar de un sonido blues tan común como interesante: la escala Voodoo Blues. La estructura interna es totalmente idéntica a una escala de blues menor (1 b3 4 b5 5 b7) a excepción de la b7, que se sustituye por la 6. (1 b3 4 b5 5 6) Es sorprendente como cambiar una sola nota en un grupo de sonidos puede tener un efecto tan notable!

Pentatonic Scales inside the Lydian Mode
Interesting lesson about Lydian Mode and related Pentatonic scales, with guitarLayers 😉El modo Lidio, alberga la posibilidad de tocar tres escalas pentatónicas sin incluir ninguna nota que se salga de la sonoridad.
Modo Lidio: 1 2 3 #4 5 6 7
Pentatónica mayor desde el grado I: 1 2 3 5 6
Pentatónica mayor desde el grado II: 2 3 #4 6 7
Pentatónica mayor desde el grado V: 2 3 5 6 7
En esta lección lo explico e incluyo diagramas para este y los otros seis modos griegos:

Three-Note Voicings
It is not that uncommon, among jazz musicians, to use three-note chords that can work as more complex chords structures.
Three-notes chords often are more handy and essential and, if we have the ability to obtain quickly their inversions, we can obtain a lot of voicings that can work as seventh chords.
In the picture below we have the notes C D Ab that can work as: Amin (maj7), Fm6, E7 (b13), Bb7 (9).
Try yourself the sound ! 😉
All three-notes chords, their inversions on string sets and their equivalent seventh-chords, are automatically generated with guitarLayers guitarlayers.com

Melodic Minor Scale MODES: 3 NOTES-PER-STRINGS

Thank you so much 🙂
Rad thanks
Personally, I prefer 3 notes per strings. I really don't find these 4 notes/2 notes patterns useful at all
This is very helpful. I am still having problems putting my arms and ears around the sound of this scale and how to really use it. Trying though!!
Excelente información
Personally, I use this knowledge for triad pair improvisation. B altered: play A dim B dim, or C minor D minor, or Fmaj G maj. Other combinations eg with Eb aug are also possible of course, but using 2 neighbouring triads of the same quality saves thinking while playing.
Thanks for sharing this one. Interesting stuff to study. 👍👍👍
Amazing! Thank you for this
Thanks great info
Any chance of an iPhone app?
Thanks!
Thanks A Ton
My mind has blown with it😁😅still learning...

Pentatonic Scale on Two Strings
Visualizing scales horizontally on the fretboard allows us to play them exploring new melodic ideas and new intervallic patterns.

Minor Seventh Chord Substitution
In many situations, where we have a bass player, we can avoid to play the root and substitute it with the ninth.
If you apply this process to all the inversions of a minor seventh chord you will come up with the inversions of a major seventh chord, as you can see on the diagrams.
So that, any major seventh chord and its inversions can work as substitution of a minor seventh chord. (e.g. Cm7 -> Ebmaj7)
