EDCAG octaves (EADGBE : 6-string guitar standard tuning)
E phrygian mode (3 notes per string) : General
In BLOGoZON No.289 the box shapes for the E phrygian mode were presented using
the EDCAG octaves methodology.
In this BLOGoZON we look at the E phrygian mode, again, but with 3nps shapes and join them all together to form one long EDCAG octaves chain.
The diagram that follows shows all seven of the EDCAG octaves shapes for use with
the three notes per string patterns for a 6-string guitar tuned to EADGBE :-
The conjoined EDCAG octaves sequence is shown for E natural in the diagram that follows:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : E natural octaves
The diagrams that follow show all of the E phrygian mode notes plotted over the 6-string guitar's fretboard in the EDCAG octaves and GuitarPro6 styles:-

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 E phrygian mode are detailed below in the EDCAG octaves manner:-
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all seven box shapes for the
E phrygian mode in the
EDCAG 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 - 6Em4Dm2 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the EDCAG octaves chain-linked sequence for the E phrygian mode 3nps box shapes. |
The complete TAB for the previous exercise follows:-
