On this page we have provided all seven major scales and their relative minor scales. Included are the key signatures for each scale plus the ascending and descending notation. We also provide you with illustrations of the major scale and minor scale patterns for guitar. Scales are the foundation of music. You will never regret the time you spend on committing scales and scale patterns to memory.
These illustrations use the familiar finger numbering pattern of: index finger is one, middle finger is two, ring finger is three, little finger is four. At first it will be easiest to start the scale or pattern on the sixth or fifth strings. For instance the A major scale can be started on the fifth fret of the sixth string (our Don't Fret Note Map™ provides a no-miss road map of the fretboard).
