[Harp-L] Re: 12th position



Rick,
The major pentatonic scale (sometimes called the country scale) is made up of the following scale degrees: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, octave (I think). I can actually figure it out for myself, but i was too lazy to sit down and do it, so i figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Hell! Not sure that I know what it is! I guess it's: F A Bb C er....D??....E?? or is it the 'black note scale': F G A C E....? If I know what the word is, I can spell it...just say 'the word'

Rick,
Since you are such a fountain of 12th position knowledge, can you
also spell out the F major pentatonic (country) scale in 12th
position for us?
	Thanks,

OK....you arksed for it! Starting on the 5th at hole 1B:

1B  1ob  2D//  3D///   3D/    (3D; the flat 5)   4B   4ob   5D
6D/    6ob    (7D; b5)  7B   8B/    9D     9od     10B//

(10B/; b5) 10B


.....made the flat fives optional, just to distinguish the pentatonic from the .......hexatonic? sexatonic? hmmm...sexatonic? so it is good for you!
