Jun 18, 2008 - Hi patcatyak, there are four tension-notes in this scale,used in this situation 9-,9+,-13, 5- that sound interesting, also try using the concept of playing A minor pentatonic over F# 7(alt) there you get the 7 and these alterations(5 notes in all=penta)In the beginning it sounds more abstract,but once you get the sound in your ears,quite interesting. Come over to my channel,you're most welcome,greets Vic.

Jun 26, 2008 - Basically, yes. "Jazz minor" is another name for the melodic minor. Same scale degrees. However, what we commonly refer to as "melodic minor" is really an ASCENDING melodic minor in traditional theory. The traditional m.m. scale raises the 6th and 7th when ascending, but lowers the 6th and 7th when descending, like a natural minor.

Jul 23, 2008 - Good lesson ...straight forward. Some of the comments border on insulting. Negative musicians are a drag.

Aug 15, 2008 - using g dorin over a minor seventh chord sounds better. i would avoid the major 7th unless its an approach note

Sep 12, 2008 - The scale doesn't quite work over the backing track. It really sounds like crap, sounds better over altered dominants.

Nov 6, 2008 - Sorry guys, but u need to give this a chance. This scale will help u to play outside once u get used 2 it. This scale has a very Mid- Eastern sound and we are not used to it however; trust me on this it will help u with your playing in the future and allows for many more options when you're soloing...

Nov 11, 2008 - Listen to the song "Perennial Quest" by a band named Death; the solo is in G Melodic minor. Amazing.

Nov 18, 2008 - Most metal solos are NOT done in petatonic, you're obviously drunk.

Nov 23, 2008 - middle eastern music uses 24 tone scales that includes quarter tones. The melodic minor scale was used in classical music, but in it's current popular form (no changes when descending) is something used commonly in jazz. The phrygian dominant or harmonic minor scales may sound a bit more 'middle eastern', but only to us westerners.
rounder Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - There isn't a scale that is used in 'most metal solos'. I've heard every kind of scale (and non-scale in the case of Slayer) in metal soloing.

Nov 30, 2008 - metal doesn't use pentatonic scale. Unless they're Judas Priest, or other crappy so called metal bands.Real metal bands use a wide variety of scales
