Scale Fluency - Melodic Minor Modes
On Sale
$9.99
$9.99
The melodic minor and its modes — Lydian dominant, the altered scale, and most of what makes jazz and fusion sound the way it does.
This is the scale guitarists tend to learn theoretically and then never play, because the theory is interesting and the fretboard work is dull. The fretboard work is what this book covers: one- and two-octave approaches practised vertically and horizontally, all 12 keys, until you can reach for an altered sound over a dominant chord without thinking about where it comes from.
The patterns are close enough to the major scale modes book that the transition isn't a fresh start. Work through this properly and the sounds stop being exotic and start being available.
