Emmitt, I like the idea of practicing the major scale in thirds. Have you ever tried the harmonized scale? It's just maj min min maj maj min dim maj. I took a guitar workshop with Howard Roberts years ago, and he had us play scales in thirds (with the third on top) then add the fifths to give a scale in triads. From there we went to sevenths, 1maj7, 2min7, 3min7, 4maj7, 5dom7, 6min7, 7half-dim7(min7b5), 1maj7. Cool scale. Thanks for posting.

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash It's only music. -niteshift Mike Dunbar Music
