What are your favorite scales to play?

[0omnidirectional]

Many of my songs are in G major. I like playing melodic rhythms around the seventh fret. It sounds very epic and cosmic when I play the melodic chords I discovered years ago. The solos my buddy plays with it are mind melting.

I also enjoy the harmonic Minor because of the Arabian sound (what is that thing called?), and the phrygian dominant is always fun.

What scales do you guys play the most often?

[Azure]

I like triple beams.

[944]

Pentatonic major/minor and Harmonic Minor

[monotoned]

b flat minor
makes me feel badass

[Uber_Apples]

Analyitcal balance for me, preferably with an eclosed weighing platform and 4 decimal places.

I can't stop fucking playing in MINOR.:mad:

[Iolite]

aeolien in E flat----or C minor....Hell, it really doesn't matter...
I like the middle eastern scale, though I haven't mastered it.

hey guess what? phrygian dominant is the fifth mode of the harmonic minor scale.

i like the hexatonic and diminished scales.

[AdamSmokesCrack]

Aeolian is pretty sounding, and I find myself using it quite a bit.

F# ionian
All my arpeggios are diminished, a minor, or a diminished minor.

I'm surprised anyone likes listening to me at all, because everything I play is diminished.

The fuck are scales?

I just print out tabs of what I actually want to play, and learn to play it.

Musical progressions that sound amazing. You can't create too much music without scales.

Scales are the basics of all basics.
You should try them.

They can greatly improve your music, from basic muscle training to a better understanding of music.

[Bobweirsucks]

only n00bs use tabs

[BukkakeTsunami]

C scale is always sounds very bleak & interesting, and you can do so much with it...not that you couldn't with the rest...just sayin'

[Bob Cock]

Bb major on a cello is my favorite. Also A, E, and C minor pentatonic on a bass.

[Marijuanasaurus]

i like the mixolydian scale, as well as the phrygian and locrian for darker sounds.

Playing on scale modes around the melodic minor scale is fun too. Gives you a dark evil sound.

[Flex Rigid]

Blues scale is where it's at.

[Iolite]

There's an actual middle-eastern scale in case you didn't know, I'll tab the pattern for you if you want but I suggest you get "the bass grimoire"
if you really want to learn scale patterns.

[Caramello Koala]

pentatonic minor/major's probably my favourite

[CrazyJoe]

I abuse A minor a lot.

Pretend like you don't use them.
