to compose, improvise, and explore the instrument. It provides a full accounting of 5-, 6-,
and 7-note scales containing intervals no larger than a major third and selected 8-note
scales, chiefly to account for the Bebop scales and the Diminished Scale.

PDF is the ideal format for this book. You can print out some or all of it, slap it in a 3-ring

introduction
This book is based on the concept of musical interval—the sonic space between any two notes.
▪ The fundamental interval in Western music is the half tone (or semitone), e.g., from C to Db.
▪ Two half tones make up a whole tone, e.g., from C to Dd to D.
▪ Three half tones make up a minor third, e.g., from C to Db to D to Eb.
▪ Four half tones make up a major third, e.g., from C to Db to D to Eb to E natural.
Half tone, whole tone, minor third, and major third are the building blocks of the scales in this book.
Musical intervals can be represented by numbers:
1 = a half tone (the most basic unit; the smallest single step in the 12-tone chromatic scale)
2 = a whole tone (made up of 2 half tones)
3 = a minor third (made up of 3 half tones)
4 = a major third (made up of 4 half tones)
A scale can be shown as a series of numbers representing the sequence of intervals it comprises. No matter how
many or how few notes are in a scale, the numbers representing the intervals in that scale must add up to 12.
For example, the C major scale, C D E F G A B C, contains only half tones (which can be represented by 1’s) and
whole tones (which can be represented by 2’s) in this sequence: whole tone, whole tone, half tone, whole tone,
whole tone, whole tone, half tone.
The intervallic structure is 2212221, and 2 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12.
Every major scale, regardless of key, has the same intervallic structure, 2212221.
If you know the intervallic structure of a scale, any scale, you can create it in any key.

Mode or scale?
A mode is a scale. When a scale is called a mode, it’s in reference to its parent scale. Using the C major scale as
an example of a parent scale:
▪ Starting and ending on the 1st note, C D E F G A B C, yields the C ionian mode: 2212221.
▪ Starting and ending on the 2nd note, D E F G A B C D, yields the D dorian mode: 2122212.
▪ Starting and ending on the 3rd note, E F G A B C D E, yields the E phrygian mode: 1222122.
▪ Starting and ending on the 4th note, F G A B C D E F, yields the F lydian mode: 2221221.
▪ Starting and ending on the 5th note, G A B C D E F G, yields the G mixolydian mode: 2212212.
▪ Starting and ending on the 6th note, A B C D E F G A, yields the A aeolian mode: 2122122.
▪ Starting and ending on the 7th note, B C D E F G A B, yields the B locrian mode: 1221222
If our example had been, say, the F major scale (F G A Bb C D E F), the modes generated would be G dorian, A
phrygian, Bb lydian, C mixolydian, D aeolian, E locrian, and returning to F major (or F ionian).
In conventional Western music, the roles and relationships of the Major Scale and its modes are pretty much
fixed, but outside that framework, any scale might be considered a parent scale generating a family of modes.

Why ‘topologies’?
Topology is a branch of mathematics concerned with, among other things, the
deformation of objects in space. It has been said of topologists that they make no
distinction between a coffee cup and a doughnut—both are 3-dimensional objects
with one hole in them. In this book, I use topology as a metaphor and an organizing
principle.
How so?
Well, what do the intervallic structures of the Major Scale and all its modes have in
common? Regardless of the order of arrangement, each has the same “topology.”
Each comprises two half tones and five whole tones. In our numeric nomenclature,
that’s two 1’s and five 2’s. As shown on the right, calculating all possible
permutations of 1,1,2,2,2,2,2 yields 21 unique sequences—which can be seen as
representing 21 seven-note scales containing no major or minor third, belonging to
three families:
▪ Seven unique sequences representing the Major Scale (2212221)
and its six modes
▪ Seven unique sequences representing the Melodic Minor Scale
(2122221) and its six modes
▪ Seven unique sequences representing the Neapolitan Major Scale
(1222221) and its six modes

Note: Throughout this book, a numeric sequence separated by commas, e.g., 1,1,2,2,2,2,2, represents a topology,
which generates permutations; the same numeric sequence without commas, i.e., 1122222, represents an
individual scale, which generates a family of modes.

What’s in this book?


Seven-note (heptatonic) scales
Every permutation of combinations of seven intervals up to a major third the sum of which equals 12:
Topology 7.1 1,1,2,2,2,2,2 (7-note scales with no thirds)
Topology 7.2 1,1,1,2,2,2,3 (7-note scales with 1 minor third)
Topology 7.3 1,1,1,1,2,3,3 (7-note scales with 2 minor thirds)
Topology 7.4 1,1,1,1,2,2,4 (7-note scales with 1 major third)
Topology 7.5 1,1,1,1,1,3,4 (7-note scales with a minor and major third)
Topologies 7.1–7.3 comprise 266 unique scales and modes derived from 38 parent scales. These 266 scales are,
for the most part, interesting and useful—not only as scales, but also for the chords that can be generated by
harmonizing each scale tone.
Topology 7.4 produced, in my opinion, only a few useful or interesting scales. Topology 7.5 comprises five half
tones, a major third, and a minor third. Five consecutive half tones is half a chromatic scale. IMHO, a lot of the
scales in topology 7.5 aren’t very useful or musically interesting, but I’ve included them for the sake of providing
a complete accounting. Plus I figure you can best judge for yourself what’s useful or interesting to you.

2
Selected chords derived from 7-note scales
The first 38 parent scales in this book (topologies 7.1–7.3) are accompanied by a page of selected chords
associated with each scale tone.
For simplicity and economy of space, all chord samples are named off the 6th string and tightly voiced. The chord
forms do not identify fret by Roman numeral; I assume you know 8th fret 6th string is C; 10th fret 6th string is D;
etc.
The selected chords are just a starting point. I leave the many possible inversions and transpositions to you.
There’s a blank chord form in the back of the book that you can print out for that purpose.
As is the case throughout the book, all scale harmonizations are based on a tonic or root note of C.
Wherever the same chord form (e.g., m7+5) is associated with more than one note in the scale, I’ve diagrammed
the first instance and then noted the others in parentheses.
The other 7-note scales do not have a page of chord forms, nor do the 5-note, 6-note, and 8-note scales.

Six-note (hexatonic) scales


Every permutation of combinations of six intervals up to a major third the sum of which equals 12:
Topology 6.1 1,2,2,2,2,3 (6-note scales with 1 minor third)
Topology 6.2. 1,1,2,2,3,3 (6-note scales with 2 minor thirds)
Topology 6.3 1,1,2,2,2,4 (6-note scales with 1 major third)
Topology 6.4 1,1,1,2,3,4 (6-note scales with 1 minor and 1 major third)
Topology 6.5 1,1,1,3,3,3 (6-note scales with 3 minor thirds)
Topology 6.6 1,1,1,1,4,4 (6-note scales with 2 major thirds)
Topology 6.7 2,2,2,2,2,2 (the Whole Tone Scale)
Of the 6-note scales, only topologies 6.1–6.4 include a few useful or interesting scales. Quite a few of them are
just ordinary pentatonic scales with an extra note or conventional 7-note scales with one note omitted.
Topology 6.5 includes the Augmented Scale (313131) and its one mode (131313). Topology 6.6 is included only
to provide a complete accounting of possible 6-note scales. Topology 6.7 is the Whole Tone Scale.

Five-note (pentatonic) scales


Every permutation of combinations of five intervals up to a major third the sum of which equals 12, except
2,2,2,2,4 (Whole Tone Scale with one note missing):
Topology 5.1 2,2,2,3,3 (5-note scales with 2 minor thirds)
Topology 5.2 1,2,2,3,4 (5-note scales with 1 minor and 1 major third)
Topology 5.3 1,1,2,4,4 (5-note scales with 2 major thirds)
Topology 5.4 1,1,3,3,4 (5-note scales with 1 major and 2 minor thirds)
Topology 5.1 comprises two families of pentatonic scales (10 scales total). The first includes the pentatonic
minor and its modes—scales known to just about every rock and blues player on the planet. The second family
includes the “pentatonic lydian” and its modes, which can add interest to solos when mixed with the pentatonic
minor and its modes.

3
Topologies 5.2 and 5.3 include pentatonic scales that are redacted modes (e.g., the Phrygian mode with no 3rd
and 6th scale tones; the Lydian mode with no 2nd and 5th scale tones). Topology 5.4 is included only to provide a
full accounting of the possible 5-note scales.

Eight-note (octatonic) scales


Of the possible 8-note topologies, I’ve included only two:
Topology 8.1 1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2 (8-note scales with no major or minor third)
Topology 8.2 1,1,1,1,1,2,2,3 (8-note scales with a minor third)
Topology 8.1 yields the Diminished scale (21212121) and the Bebop scales, which are conventional 7-note scales
with an added note. At best, topology 8.2 yields some chromatically embellished pentatonics. Other possible 8-
note topologies (e.g., 1,1,1,1,1,1,2,4 and 1,1,1,1,1,1,3,3) yield excessively chromatic scales and are not included.

Page layouts
Parent scales
Numbered parent scales are plotted the length of 24 frets in the key of C. I mapped out the parent scales and all
their modes in Part 1, but in Part 2, I generally mapped out just the parent scale or the parent scale and a few
modes. In many cases, choosing which scale in a family to use as the parent scale was arbitrary.
Modes on the parent-scale pages are plotted in the articulations easiest for me to play. I have relatively small
hands, and I favor horizontal scale patterns across two octaves with 3-fret stretches. Scale diagrams throughout
the book reflect that limitation. Feel free to come up with your own best articulations. The scale diagrams give
no indication which finger should play which note. You should be able to work out your own best solutions.
Numbering of scales is according to the index of scales at the back of the book, which I used as a guide in its
compilation.
A blank scales page is included at the end of the book.
Note on scale names: Many scales are known by more than one name. When I could find names for some of the
more unusual scales, I used them. However, I made no effort to determine, for example, whether Hungarian
Major is more standard nomenclature than Lydian dominant #2, Mixolydian #9 #11, Lydian #2 b7, or Mixolydian
#2#4, though all refer to the same sequence of intervals (3121212). Nor did I research non-English scales names
(Japanese, Indian, Balinese, etc).

Chords
The first thirty-eight 7-note parent scales (Part 1) include a selection of chords for each scale tone.
All of the selected chords are named off the 6th string and usually voiced as tightly as possible. These chords are
just a starting point, i.e., there are a lot of ways to make a C7 chord. I acknowledge that some of the chord
names may be “nonstandard,” but that’s the way I notate, understand, and use them. Wherever the same chord
form (e.g., m7) is associated with more than one note in the scale, I’ve shown the first instance and then noted
the others in parentheses. Layouts of the 5-note, 6-note, and 8-note scales do not include chord forms; neither
do the 7-note scales containing major thirds.
A blank chords page is included at the end of the book.

I hope you find this book useful. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to

I’m sure there are many ways to use the pentatonic lydian (a name I
made up), but for a start, try it as a substitute for the 2nd degree of
the pentatonic minor. For example, in a blues in A,where you might
ordinarily use the A pentatonic minor, try interspersing C
pentatonic lydian.

harmonized scale tones
The pages in this section lay out
the first 38 seven-note parent
scales on a chromatic grid and
identify the chord tones native to
each parent scale and its modes
through two octaves.
Generally speaking, chords are
derived from scales by selecting
every other note in the scale
across two octaves. This is how
scale notes are harmonized.
The example on the right is for
the Neapolitan Minor in C. Start
with any scale degree in the row
at the top of the grid (Roman
numerals), the shaded boxes
below show the associated chord
tones derived from the scale. The
shaded boxes under C, for
example, tell us the fully extended
chord native to the first note of
the Neapolitan minor scale would
include:
 the root or tonic (C)
 minor 3rd (Eb)
 perfect 5th (G)
 major 7th (B)
 flatted 9th (Db)
 unaltered 11th (F)
 flatted 13th (Ab)

s
7
us some of the C chords that would support the C Neapolitan minor scale (Cm or Cm11, for example). The chart also
tells us the second mode of this scale, starting with Db, yields Db7, Db9, and Db+11. The third mode yields a Eb7+5.
And so on.
You can use the charts in this chapter to figure out what chords may work over the 7-note parent scales and modes in
-to-C
errors in these
charts, please let me know at fretboardtopologies@gmail.com so I can fix them in subsequent versions of the book.
Thanks!

Appendix A: I-IV-V cycles of the

294
I-IV-V (blues) cycle of pentatonic scales in the key of E
You can solo over a I-IV-V blues/rock chord progression without leaving the tonic key. For example, you can solo over all three
chords of a I-IV-V in E (E7-A7-B7) using only the E pentatonic minor (top-left pattern below). Plenty of people play that way.
Alternatively, you can follow the changes and match scales to chords for example, you could play A pentatonic minor over the
IV chord (A7) and B pentatonic minor over the V chord (B7). There are at least two ways to do this:
1. Shift the pattern at fret XII to the 5th fret for the A7 chord and to the 7th fret for B7 chord
2. Stay at the 12th fret and play the associated modes of A and B pentatonic minor for the IV and V chords
The diagrams below show I-IV-V cycles of the pentatonic minor and its four modes in the key of E. Memorizing how to cycle
through these patterns will open up the full length of the neck for you, especially if (like me) you have a tendency to rely entirely
too much on one pentatonic scale pattern (i.e., top-left pattern below).
