Major Scale Shape

Skill Builders Series

Resource

Scales have a root note just like chords. There are many scales to learn so I'll begin by

showing you a scale shape.

This is the major scale and the root is on G so it is a G major scale.

The root notes are Red

Let's take this shape from

the 3rd to the 7th fret

7

Concept: If I keep the same scale shape and move to another fret

then I have changed keys. To remain in the same key I

must change the scale shape as I move frets.

Now we have a B major scale

Major Scale 

3 notes per string same rules apply when moving

the root to another fret
