once every fortnight I go to the pub for an evening of women, wine, and song. Well, there is only the occasional flirt with a woman, and instead of wine I opt for whisky which is calorically more in keeping with my goals, and there is no song.
I usually read Greek or Latin poetry but this time around i revamped my scale charts. I made two innovations to my charts.
First I changed the visual aspect of my charts. I had used dots to indicate where to fret. I changed the dots to intervals. I did this so that I know what intervals i am playing instead of just playing a shape. This will be useful when I combine chords with my scales. By knowing what intervals I am playing it will enable me to use chord tones to match my scales to my chords. It will also enable me to link the scales together by utilizing common intervals.
Second I expanded my scales from 3 strings to 4 strings. with scales with the root on the G string I extended the scale past the octave to the A string. With scales with the root on the C string I included notes on the G string. I did this so that I could link scales more fluidly. This will allow me to link my linear scales and re-entrant scales.
