Ever used hexatonic scales in an impro. A friend of mine is a jazz musician. On day he showed me a cool concept. The hexatonics. Hexatonics are elegantly simple. They consist of two mutually exclusive triads, usually a whole step apart, which are combined to create a six note scale. He showed me a book by Jerry Bergonzi (awesome sax player) that dives deeply into the concept. Anyway its a cool tool for improvising. I just start to use it. Still have no real clue. But I saw Jerry live a while ago and could identify some hexatonic passages in his playing. Now I work more on it and perhaps put a little diagram together if I find time. Anyway check it out
