I have transribed the Gmajor modes C Major Modes and the F major modes. The F major modes could be of paticular interest to those who are learning the Bulerias. And C Major for Solea Any way if you don't know these, they are very important.
Thanks, not just for the content but the brilliant use of Powertab Editor. I have been drawing really rough guitar neck diagrams to illustrate these and other scales for my students, this will replace that and look a lot better. I usually only used Powertab to demonstrate musical examples, and I also find that a lot of players, as well as new students have never heard of the modes.
Thanx Jim, it took a long time for me to figure out all the little tools on power tab but it was worth it. I developed a teaching method for my students called scale imagery. What I do is get the students to see there scales and modes as a whole pattern instead of seperate notes.
A good trick too, is to memorize the individual string patterns, like on the f major modes.
I teach the scale like this instead of separate notes.
I also teach scales as patterns, seeing as that's how I used them when I played rock. I'm seeing a resurgance in the desire to play lead guitar among my teen students, many of them like Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix more than any current artists. At the moment I only have two that are interested in flamenco.
