A scale reference for Harmonic Minor Scale box shapes. These are the five shapes/patterns for the Harmonic Minor scale on guitar, based off the CAGED System:


1 (D Shape)


2 (C Shape)


3 (A Shape)


4 (G Shape)


5 (E Shape)



PRACTICE TIPS

  1. Pick a key.

  2. Locate the note on a string.

  3. Overlay the pattern with the 'R' falling on the note of a chosen key.

  4. Play pattern up and down then pick another key.

  5. Practice ONE shape a day and spend 2mins learning the pattern and moving it around to different keys.

If this all seems confusing then check out my free lessons onFretboard Knowledge: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
