GEDCA octaves (EADGBE : 6-string guitar standard tuning)
G mixolydian mode (3 notes per string): General
In BLOGoZON No.298 the box shapes for the G mixolydian mode were presented using
the GEDCA octaves methodology - this is the standard CAGED octaves guitar system.
In this BLOGoZON we look at the G mixolydian mode, again, but with 3nps shapes and join them all together to form one long GEDCA octaves chain.
The diagram that follows shows all seven of the GEDCA octaves shapes for use with
the
three notes per string patterns for a 6-string guitar tuned to EADGBE :-
The conjoined GEDCA octaves sequence is shown for G natural in the diagram that follows:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : G natural octaves
The diagrams that follow show all of the G mixolydian mode notes plotted over the 6-string guitar's fretboard in the GEDCA octaves and GuitarPro6 styles:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : G mixolydian 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 G mixolydian mode are detailed below in the
GEDCA octaves manner:-
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes
for the G mixolydian mode in the
GEDCA 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 - 6G3G1 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the GEDCA octaves chain-linked sequence for the G mixolydian mode 3nps box shapes. |
The complete TAB for the previous exercise follows:-
