  • Wednesday Fogarty Scale lesson

    Posted by jorgemac on October 28, 2026 at 12:47 pm

    I always try to take wednesday’s scale lessons and rearrange it or move them to another key. If you can open the attachment you will see that I have added the D major scale above measure 2 of our lesson.

    I then wrote the appropriate scale note name under measures 5 and 6 . Now that I know what scale notes are played in the order I can, then, transfer those note positions to a different key.

    we’ll start easy and move the D major scale to the G major scale. I take a blank tab page, which you can find online and print out. I found this copy on songnote.net

    I transfer the D major notes from our lesson to the blank tab page and can play this same lick in the Key o G.

    Yep you have to learn your scales to do this but other than that this is a wonderful way to lern how to play tunes in other keys.

    Sorry can’t figure out how to attach the lesson modification sheet I made up.

    But if you want to play this lick in the Key of G just move the whole lesson down 1 string and play the same positions a 1 string lower. Or to play the lesson in the Key C, Move move all of your picking positions back toward the head stock 2 frets and start the lesson the the Bass E string 8th fret C note.
