Popularly played music can be crudely divided into three main key “families" Major, relative minor, and Blues keys. One great trait of music s that each Major key has relative minor key that uses essentially the same chords and notes for scales! The main difference is which note is treated as the “root” note. A "G” note isthe root note in the key of G Major, as shoven below, and an“E” note is the root nate of G Major's relative minor key (E minor). Notice how the Major ‘and relative minor rots each have their own special border in this book. It's also important to know that songs in Major keys tend tohave “happier” sounds, while songs in relative minor keystend to have “sadder” sounds! Each ofthe 14 Major and relative minor kkeysare combined into ‘Standard Pages" (the odd numbered pages 9-35), and they xe nsed to play in many kinds of non-bluesy styles including rock, folk, bluegrass, country,pop,and more.

On page, mentioned the (controversial?) idea of three key families Major, relative minor, and Blues keys. Bluesy musicis often based on Major key chord progressions, played alongsicle minor key soloing scales! For example, ifa bluesy song isin the key of G Major, then youl often use G Major chord progressions combined with Gmminor soloing scales! What makes even more interesting i that you can combine scales like the G Major pentatonic with the G minor pentatonic foceven more flavorful sounds. With this Fretboard Toolbox "Complete Edition”, you can see the “Standard” and “Blues’ versions of all 1 Major & Blues keys side-by-side, so you can see exactly which soloing scales and chords give songs their unique sounds! Note that the “Standard Pages" are the odd-numbered pages 9-55, while the "Blues Pages" are the even-numbered pages 10-56. Five “Bluosy" Ideas Worth Learning In Every Key (using theG Blues” key Chord Jig asan example ) Which chords sound “bluesy” together in each key, and what are the Roman numerals ofeach chord in each key? Bhuesy chord progressions typically focus on tho LV, and V chords- (G Major. C Major. and D Major chords in the koy of G Major). Lots of “bluesy-rock" songs often add BI “fat-three" chords (a Bb Majorchord in the key of GMajor) and/or VII ‘lat-seven" chords (an F Majorchord inthe key of G Major) to the LV, and V chords. Notice these 5 chords are simply the minor pentatonic notes played as Major chords! See page 6 to learn how the Chord Progressions Boxes reveal common waysto combine these chords in any key! Which scales are commonly used in bluesy music? The first row of Blues pages’ Chord Jigs shows the Major seale of the I (Roof) chord in bold font. The Major scale is built from the notes in the 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 columns (G A, B,C, DE and Fi# in G Major). Major pentatonic scale notes are underlined (GA. B,D, and E). The minor pentatonic notes from the key are shown in white boxes (G BCD. and £7 These are the notes that will easly give you really cool, uesy sounding solod! Blues music also often adds the ‘flat-five" note (shown in the “b5" colunm with an asterisk ()) to the minor pentatonic scale to get even more bluesy sounds Which notes from the Major scale are used /changed to make bluesy scales? Some of the heart and sou of huesy music comes by changing (flattening) the notes from the Major scale's Sand Zcolumns into hand b7notes. To hear thisin G Major, first play the G Major pentatonic scale (see notes above). Now try the GBlues ale (notes above) & memorize the unique sounds of each! How are chords used ta blues? Bluesy music uses TONS of “dominant 7" (dom7) chords, made by adding the b7 (read “flat T)ncie to the f,3,and 5 columus. So,to play a"GT" chord, you'd add one or more “F'notes tothe notes G,B, and D. Try playing the “Simple 12 Bar Blues" progression from box | on page 6 using all 7 chords (G7,C7, and D7) to see one way these 7 chords work. How are blues chords and scales built? This box shows the columas & notes from the Chord Jig used to makebesie chordsin ceack key, It also shows the columns & notes from the Chord Jig used to make the various types of scales in each key. Bluesy music often centerson the minor pentatonic & Blues scales but also often mizes in notes from the Major & Major pentatonic scales too!

Using the chord changes from the let & middle boxes, you can play an amazing numberof blues song! The cool sounds of these bluesy-rock progressions comes from the fact that they take notes from the bluesy sounding minor pentatonic scale, and turn each of those notes into Major chords. The G minor pentatonic scale isthe notes G, BAC, D,and F TheG,C,andD notes are shared with the G Major scale, but the flat~3 (Bb) and the flat-T (F) notes from the G minor pentatonic scale can both be turned into Major chords.

Knowing how to build Major scales is essential because al chords and al other soloing scales are built by manipulating Major scales. All Major scales are buill using the following formula: whole-step, whale-step,hall-step, wholo-step, whole-st whole-step.ond then a half-stephack to the same nate you started on, just an “octave” above. A “whole-step” means yon have to skip one fret in between the two notes, while a "half-step" means to play the note right next tothe fret youreon, You can see how a G Major scale is built the "G” string by looking at the graphic below.

You can see the Major scale for every key on the “Major Scale Jig" on the next, Chord Building- Chords are just groups of notes played at the same time, so it's important to know which notes you need to build any chords you want to play, Several ofthese “Chord Formulas" are shown below, with lots more shown on the following page. Chords can be made entirely of notes found within the Major scale of the chord (Major scale notes are in bold), but you often have to make one or more notes “flat” (b)or “sharp” (#).
