In this lesson, we dive into one of my favorite exercises for hearing and feeling the subtle — but powerful — difference between the major scale and the melodic minor scale. This isn’t just theory — we’re applying it directly on the fretboard in second position, then shifting to explore extended phrasing.

You’ll learn:

• The tonal contrast between major and melodic minor

• How to extend a basic scale up the neck

• Why this concept helps unlock musical phrasing and fingerboard mastery
