DCAGE octaves (EADGBE : 6-string guitar standard tuning)
D dorian mode : General
In this BLOGoZON we take a look at the D dorian mode box shapes and join them all together for
6-string guitar in standard EADGBE tuning to form one long DCAGE octaves chain.
The diagram that follows shows all five of the DCAGE octaves shapes for use with
the standard patterns for a 6-string guitar tuned to EADGBE :-
The DCAGE octaves sequence is shown for D natural in the diagram that follows:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : D natural octaves
The diagrams that follow show all of the D dorian mode notes plotted over the 6-string guitar's fretboard in the DCAGE octaves and GuitarPro6 styles:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : D dorian mode
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 D dorian mode are detailed below in the DCAGE octaves manner:-
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes for the
D dorian mode in the
DCAGE octaves style.

Once the individual box shapes have been assimilated all seven shapes should be linked together and played in one continuous exercise (with the first shape - 4Dm2 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the DCAGE octaves chain-linked sequence for the D dorian mode box shapes. |
The complete TAB for the previous exercise follows:-
