AGEDC octaves : 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE)
A minor scale (aeolian mode) - 3nps : General
In BLOGoZON No.674 the box shapes for the A minor scale (aeolian mode) were presented for
6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE) using the standard AGEDC octaves guitar system for Drop D.
In this BLOGoZON we look again at the A minor scale (aeolian mode), but with 3nps shapes and
join them all together to form one long Drop D : AGEDC octaves chain.
The diagram that follows shows all seven of the octave shapes used with the
three notes per string patterns for 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE).
The conjoined Drop D : AGEDC octaves sequence is shown for A natural in the diagram that follows.

The diagram that follows shows all seven of the Drop D : AGEDC octaves shapes for use with the
3nps box shapes for a 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE).
The diagrams that follow show all of the A minor scale (aeolian mode) notes plotted over the
6-string guitar's (Drop D - DADGBE) fretboard in the AGEDC octaves and GuitarPro7 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
A minor scale (aeolian mode) are detailed below in the AGEDC octaves manner.
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all seven box shapes for the
A minor scale (aeolian mode) in the AGEDC octaves style.
