<span style='font-family:Courier'>Hi,
I am trying to make a nice easy movable gypsy scale based on the basic hungarian gypsy scale of 1,2,b3,#4,5,b6,7
So key of C would look like this C D D# F# G G# B C
Here are a couple of patterns I have worked out. I am trying to come with some good fingering for them.
1st pattern
------------- fret# -------------
C G D | 5 1 1 1 |
| G D# | 6 | 2 2 |
D | | B 7 2 | | 2
D# | | C 8 3 | | 3
| B F# | 9 | 3 3 |
| C G | 10 | 4 3 |
F# | G# | 11 4 | 4 |
2nd pattern
------------- fret# -------------
| F# | G# 4 | 1 | 1
C G D | 5 1 2 1 |
| G# D# | 6 | 3 2 |
D | | B 7 2 | | 2
D# | | C 8 3 | | 3
| B F# | 9 | 3 3 |
| C G | 10 | 4 4 |
I don't like these first two because each has one string that has 5 notes, which makes the fingering tricky, but this following one seems a little tricky to remember because the pattern is all over the place.
3rd possition
------------- fret# -------------
| | C G 3 | | 1 1
| F# | G# 4 | 1 | 2
C G D | 5 1 2 2 |
| G# D# | 6 | 3 3 |
D | | B 7 2 | | 3
D# | | C 8 3 | | 4
| B F# | 2 | 4 4 |
Any suggestions?
