This is a great video, I'm glad that you came into my suggestions and now I am subscribed. I'm curious how I could translate this to my style of playing which is not via the major scale, but more the caged system positions and now several modes. Could I just find the either modal position or box position and then where the altered notes are near those? Does that make sense?? Great job again. cheers from Toronto!🤘🎸
@@Dougwarren69 thank you very much for your nice comment and for the question. Yes! Actually I’m also (kind of) using the “caged system” of the C major scale on the fifth fret. Start with your “favourite place” on the fretboard and find the altered scale around it. 👍🏼 It’s going to pay off, I promise. Thanks again and greetings from Zurich (Switzerland). 🙂
Another great video, thanks. I have a question on this, and please forgive the 70 year-old guy asking a silly question! One problem I have is how to think of these scales, so is it fair to just think of a B altered scale (for example) in terms of the C major scale, as you described, instead of calling it a B altered scale? So, this way, I'm not actually learning a "new" scale, but a way to apply an old scale. I do something similar with modes, especially when I use the 3 notes on a string technique. It doesn't work perfectly, but it gives me a head-start - then I can work out my own licks and use them later. I believe Emily Remler used to teach this way of thinking. What do you think?
@@srinip Thank you very much for the comment and the question. Here’s the answer: There is a mistake in what you’re describing. If we are in C major, you should think about G7 altered (NOT B!). We use this scale to male the 5th degree (the dominant) a little more “spicy” and then we resolve on the “1” (C). If you play G7 altered you’re basically using the Ab melodic minor scale (from G to G). So of course you can think Ab mel. Minor if it’s easier for you and you already know it well. 🙂 I hope this makes sense. 👍🏼
@@chris_zattamusic Aha! You described it better than I did. I was referring to your explanation of playing C melodic minor starting from B - I was wrong when I said C major scale! The main point of the question was how to think of it, since I already know the melodic minor, why bother learning a new scale? And you answered it exactly as I was hoping you would....thanks!
