Scotty, I appreciate you putting this post together. Excellent stuff. I've made it a 'sticky' thread, if that's OK with you.

Great post Scotty, thanks. Too advanced for me right now, but I love the sounds of those scales - something to look forward to learning more about at a later stage!

Super-Locrian, huh? Sounds like a great name for a jazz superhero character

Good lesson, scotty_b. There are some interesting ideas there for sure. I was having a good old fiddle around with it all. We'll move it over the the Lessons Forum asap.

Thanks, mate! GfB&B can use as many of those as you've got.

Excellent stuff! Great contribution and point of view.

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!
