Hello nated, welcome to GMC and thanks for your kind words first of all,
much appreciated. And yes you are right! This F# chord says that it's about B harmonic minor so it is switching between D and Bm keys or scales. However there are few options regarding which scale to use over which chord. Over Bm chord you can use either natural Bm or B harmonic minor, it's totaly up to you and your tastes. I said Bm and not D major eventho they are relatives and have same notes but Bm is a chord here so it might be consider it as a root chord, thus it's also first chord in a progression which doesn't have to be rule. Over F# it's quite natural to use B harmonic minor since it's delivered from B harmonic minor. G chord also offers 2 options, either B natural or B harmonic minor, again up to you and how you wanna sound. And finally for D chord you would have to play B natural minor or D major scale if D was your root in a first place, doesn't matter, the only thing that matters here is not to play B harmonic minor which would be quite wrong. Hope I helped, let me know if I missed something or if you need anything else. -------------------- Youtube
