Misc - Scale Formation (good For Beginners) bass tab

Most Major Scales have a basic set up. For example, lets start with the G major

scale:

G|---------------------|

D|-----------2-4-5-----|

A|-----2-3-5-----------|

E|-3-5-----------------|

2 4 1 2 4 1 3 4

Now, as shown above, finger per fret on scales is basically a must if you want

speed. The correct formation of scales, with finger per fret, is:

Index finger= 1

Middle finger= 2

Ring Finger= 3

Pinky= 4

2, 4,

1, 2, 4,

1, 3, 4

Every change of lines indicates a higher string. For example, if you wanted

to play a D major scale coming off of the E string, you would play:

|-----------------|

|-----------4-6-7-|

|-----4-5-7-------|

|-5-7-------------|

2 4 1 2 4 1 3 4
