My friends, you voted for a daily workout that features all the most important scales - so I'm happy to present exactly that today :)

I made a slow and fast video play-along, as well as different shorter play-alongs of the blocks that make up the entire workout. Here are your files (video play-alongs, tabs, guitar pro files, backing tracks): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HhauhyNfssdxC6l5g456Q1dN8X_dRXnN?usp=sharing

This workout features the modes of natural major (or minor), the modes of harmonic minor, the modes of melodic minor, and the whole-half and half-whole diminished scales. Please make sure to learn how the modes of scales work to get the most out of this workout: https://www.patreon.com/posts/219-stop-scales-64741395

P.S.: I also made a Dropbox folder in case Google Drive doesn't work for you: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/p7v6m0ghfgjegzu/AADYTfN-E4HB9phE6WvD7Ykva?dl=0

Why does the "Modes of Natural Major or Minor" excercise start on Lydian?

Because it makes for nice positioning to use the whole neck would be my guess. Allows you to use that first fret F. You could start in E phrygian too but because of the open strings necessary you wouldn't be able to use that shape for phrygian in other positions.

I think it'd be great to have a similar excercise but only restricted to top 3 strings, where many solos are anchored. I guess I'm going to make a guitar pro version of it!

Thanks for sharing this! Almost all guitar channels are victims of this scammer at the moment, I report each account he creates but they keep coming back - hope YouTube does something about it soon!

This is very, very helpful to me. My scale workout was a disorganized mess of different image files that needed to be resized and required 3 different programs to open. Having to do that interrupted my concentration and ate up practice time. Now I open up one file, and I'm done. Thank You.

Half an hour and not even through the whole exercise and I can already see a difference.

Holy @#$%!!!! I was working through this and something about the way this is strung together caused a MASSIVE light bulb moment for me in terms of the way scales repeat and interlock across the fretboard! Hell yeah! I needed a breakthrough!

Is this a great place for a beginner to start? I feel like having scales down will be immensely helpful.

So, in theory, you could basically do what bernth just did here, with every single scale right:? If I take a G sharp I can take the G sharp shapes from all across the fret board and the shapes I took are just G sharp scales from a different staring point with a different name?

This is one of the workouts I've been doing as often as I can. I haven't actually played along with the video/file yet because I don't know the scales. So I grabbed the tab sheet and have been practicing learning the frets first. Once I can do them from memory then I'll focus on increasing the tempo. I've already noticed improvements.

Hi Herr Bernth, Thank you for this wonderful scale exercise. I am particularly interested in the Lydian #2 through E Mixolydian Flat 6 scales. (The last two pages.) I would like to create my own backing track and then improv over it using these fascinating and mysterious scales. However, I do not know which chords would sound appropriate--particular in the genres of blues, jazz, and metal. Would you be able to make a video, or give feedback on which chords you can build on these scales to produce a good jazz, blues, or metal solo? Thank you very much.

I can definitely add it to the next wishlist, thanks for the input :) Have an awesome day!

Hey Erik. To tide you over until Bernth has a free second to even consider posting some more creative ideas on this, I thought I'd note that the harmonized harmonic minor scale (i.e. second to last page of the workout) gives the chords: i min(Maj7), ii m7b5, III Maj#5, iv m7, V7, VI Maj7, and vii dim7. The melodic minor scale (last page) gives: i min(Maj7), ii m7, III Maj#5, V7, V7, vi m7b5, and vii m7b5. As a side note, its a great exercise to look at any (in this case 7-note or heptatonic) scale you play and figure out what chords (or arpeggio) the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th notes of the scale you are playing will build. Hope this helps get you started!
