A few questions...

I know a lot of musical terms in Swedish, problem is I don't know 'em all in English.
I've tried searching 'round the internet for the translations, but simply can't find them.
Especially 2 things I don't understand at all:
Dropped (As in Dropped D)
Diminished chords

Also I'm curious 'bout how to write the scalenames.
Phrygian I know... not the rest though.

Edit: Noticed that I might have asked in the wrong Forum. Sorry if that's the case. =o

It is found in jazz a lot too.

The GfB&B Guitar Slide Rule

Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!

Buy it now for only $10
