6's and 9's
Tutorial: Part 3
In this third segment, we are going to look at the last two positions of the Blue scale and identify the 6's and 9's in those. We are now at the twelfth fret of the fifth string, going back in this direction. So our Blue scale in this position will look like this, and so going up that same formula one, flat three; so we can go down one fret from that flat three and find the B, the nine here on the ninth fret of the fourth string, use the octave shape to find the other B on the twelfth fret of the second string.
So there is my 9's, continue at the Blue scale, we have the Flat three, four, flat five, five, then the flat seven and then going back one fret to find the six on the eleventh fret of the third string and then I can go down that octave shape to get the ninth fret of the fifth string. So there is two F sharps, and then I can extend a little bit out of this position to grab the fourteenth fret of the first string.
So my 9's were here and here, 6's. So now the final position of the Blue scale, I am on the twelfth fret of the fifth string going in the opposite direction, and counting up to find those intervals one, flat three, go back one to find the ninth, so I am on the fourteenth fret of the fifth string, and then using an octave shape here, I have got fourteenth fret fifth string, and twelfth fret second string.
And then continuing way up, flat three, four, flat five, five, flat seven, I can go a little out of position here, just back one, to find that same F sharp on the eleventh fret of the third string and then the one that we had looked at previously, fourteenth fret of the first string. Also I have got another option, and that's stretching up to find that same F sharp here, on the sixteenth fret of the fourth string.
So really, I can hit that either of those two places. So my options for the sixth in this case and also using the octave shape here to drop down to the fourteenth fret of the sixth string, my sixes are here, here or here, and then here. And then my 9's for the fourteenth fret and twelfth fret.
So that gets us through all our positions, of course now our positions start over, so we can take that lowest one that went to and start again at the seventeenth fret. So we have got identified all out 6's and 9's, so for our last segment, we will be looking at some lick applications of those.

This would be a G chord and you just strum down and the arpeggio back up. The last finish is --
