Scales & Patterns

9 drills

2 Notes Per String

Two-note-per-string scale runs ascending across all six strings.

3 Notes Per String

The speed-and-position staple: three scale notes per string across the neck.

Pentatonic Box

Walk one of the five minor-pentatonic box positions, two notes per string.

Scale Sequencer

Run the scale in melodic patterns β€” diatonic thirds or groups of four β€” instead of straight up and down.

Single-String Scale

Play a scale along one string to internalise its whole- and half-step spacing and break out of box shapes.

Three-Octave Scale

The full-neck run: three notes per string across all six strings, ascending then descending through a clean turnaround.

Box Connector

Link two adjacent pentatonic boxes β€” run up one and straight into the next so the shapes stop being islands.

Mode Explorer

Cycle the seven modes of one parent major scale β€” same notes and shape, the root and colour shift each step.

Diatonic Thirds & Sixths

β˜… PRO

Harmonise the scale a third or a sixth at a time β€” the two-note shapes that turn scales into melodies and fills.
