Misc Scales - Exotic Scales guitar tab
I found these scales on the net on my music theory quest and I decided to convert them into
tabs and there you have it, all these wierd scales written in guitar tabs.
I think most of them has nothing to do with there name and almost all of them are useless
and boring. the cool ones are the ones with fewer notes.
If U have some thing good on music theory or Jazz theory/improvisation send me please
