QUOTE (XirTiK @ Oct 31 2009, 12:23 PM)  If you for instance play a G major what scales can then be used for soloing ? Is it every major scale wich is built on a G? For exaplme a lydian G major scale, or a pentatonic G major scale? Can one combine different scales in a solo, or do you have to stick to just one ? One forehand thanks =) You answered it yourslef: you can use any major based scale. The purpose of doing this is to create different feel to that chord. This is a great exercises with one chord backings, as you acquire a good feel for different scale voicings. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

One forehand thanks =) You can play any of those scales you mention if you play G major chord ONLY. As said above, mixing those scales would give you different moods and expressions. But if that G chord appears within progression with other chords like per example Am, F, G and Dm then you would Am scale pretty much. Now, G major pentatonic over G chord in a key of Am works just fine since you have all notes included in Am scale already. Maybe I missed to answer your question fully but you didn't say was it G chord only or G combined with some other chords.

If you have a track from any selection of Chords, how do you see what scales can be played ? Well there are few ways to figure that out but we should have an example or few to start with. You have any example of a chord progression? Anyways, chords are made out of particular scale (most of the time) and knowing degrees chords here is quite essential, things like major chords on I, IV and V degrees in major scale or on III, VI and VII degrees in minor scale etc. An example would show you nicely how things work.

QUOTE (XirTiK @ Nov 3 2009, 05:57 PM) well i have this backing for example, it goes E5(High) | B/D# | D5 | A/G# Chords played like this |---|---|---|---| |---|---|---|---| |-9-|-8-|-7-|-6-| |-9-|-9-|-7-|-7-| |-7-|-6-|-5-|-4-| |---|---|---|---| I know that E pentatonic works well, but how do i find others ? I guess the last one was A/C#? Anyways, this type of progression is kind a tricky since you start with E power chord, nor major nor minor. There are many ways to harmonize this and figure out all scales but before I explain you all of them just tell me one thing. E pentatonic you mentioned, you meant E major or E minor penta? -------------------- Youtube

Without going to deep into theory, I will say the following:
E = E aeolian or dorian B/D# = E harmonic minor (= B7, B mixolydian with flattened 9) D = E dorian (= D major) A/C# = E dorian (= A7, A mixolydian) //Staffay --------------------  Guitars: Ibanez AM-200, Ibanez GB-10, Fender Stratocaster Classic Player, Warmouth Custom Built, Suhr Classic Strat, Gibson Les Paul Standard 2003, Ibanez steel-string Amps: Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, Marshall JMP 2103, AER 60 Effects: BOSS DD-20, Danelectro Trans.
