It would be kind of nice if the tabs were more spread out... it's a bit of a pain to scroll down every two notes. Other than that, it's been helpful!

Hey GMC'ers!
Welcome to another Beginner's Corner lesson. Moving on in our journey through the first scales, we're learning the full Minor Scale today. This takes our knowledge from the minor pentatonic scale and adds a few notes to make it a complete minor scale.
Tonality and Chord Progression:
This tune is in the key of A minor and the chord progression is as follows:
Am, Dm, Am, C, G (x2)
Dm, Em, Dm, F,
Dm, Em, F, G,
Am, Dm, Am, C, G (x2)
F#m
Equipment & Sound:
For this lesson I used an Epiphone Les Paul on the bridge pickup setting. I ran it through a Tech 21 Liverpool pedal for the overdrive and amp simulation. I then added a little bit of delay and reverb.
Tuning:
A 440 Standard
