2-1. The 12 major scales explained


  • PURPOSE: introduce other major scales; what is ACCIDENTALS.

  • TAKEAWAY:

    • bass guitar is the instruments tuned symmetrically

      • the interval or distance between the pitches of our open strings is always the same.

      • How can we make use of it?

        • record the shape of C major scale and start from other root notes.
    • there are 12 semi-tones intervals contains within one octave.

      • A, A#/Bb, B, C, C#/Db, C, D#/Eb, E, F, F#/Gb, G, G#/Ab

      • We can take any of these 12 notes and use them as root note to begin a major scale from

      • strive to achieve the same level of the confidence with any of the other major scales in terms of knowing the notes that used to construct them

    • When you pick a major scale please make sure to choose the root note from the E string/ A string that way you have the space availbe to complete the scale up and down

    • It’s the order of notes, and more importantly, the intervals between notes of individual notes that dictates the sound or character of any scale.

    • unnatural notes #/b are known as ACCIDENTALS

  • PRACTICE:

    • list 12 semi-tones contained in an octave.

    • use those notes as root notes to begin ohter major scales from.

    • say the note names out aloud when you play the major scale.

    • use both major scale shapes during the exercises.
