6 string guitar (EADGBE - standard tuning)
F bebop dominant scale - general
This weeks BLOGoZON looks at the F bebop dominant scale for 6-string guitar in standard tuning.
The EDCAG octaves sequence is shown for F natural in the diagram that follows:-
The diagrams that follow show all of the F bebop dominant scale notes plotted over the 6-string guitar's EADGBE fretboard in the EDCAG octaves and GuitarPro6 styles:-
NOTE No.1:- The GuitarPro6 fingerboard that follows show both E♭'s and B♭'s enharmonic equivalent spellings of D♯ and A♯ (the augmented second interval name rather than the minor third; the augmented sixth interval name rather than the minor seventh ) used elsewhere on this page.
As always a more long term solution to fretboard navigation is to see scales as INTERVAL shapes rather than note names - as these are universal to all scales, arpeggios and chords rather than specific to one particular root note - with this in mind the intervals for the F bebop dominant scale are detailed below in the EDCAG octaves manner:-
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes for the F bebop dominant scale in the EDCAG octaves style.

Once the individual box shapes have been assimilated all five shapes should be linked together and played in one continuous exercise (with the first shape - 6E4E1 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the EDCAG octaves chain-linked sequence for the F bebop dominant scale box shapes. |
The complete TAB for the previous exercise follows:-
