Creating Scales On The Guitar
To create scales, we will be using which ever key we decide to use.In this case lets make an A Major scale using our A major key: A B C# D E F# G#
If we take these notes we found in our key (A B C# D E F# G#) and mark them on
our guitar like so. we make up a A Major scale!
We have now successfully created our A Major scale by adding our notation to the fretboard diagrams.
Walt,
I have been studying how to construct scales. I have memorized the WWHWWWH pattern for major scales. I can create a scale on 1 string. However, when it comes to ascending or descending I get lost. How do you construct a scale using all 6 strings?
