So today we will look at the G major scale and analyse it, here we see that F has a sharp in it which goes up one semi-tone. I love this scale when it comes to the 4th string where by you are forced to use your pinky finger for that 4th fret on the D string. Whenever I'm doing warm-up excersises for my fingers, I'd always come back to the scales, although for most people normal like me initially, its like a nightmare to us, something which our music teacher would ask us to practice , but nevertheless, we would always find ourselves jamming on chords and etc instead of going slow on the fretboard one by one. This really helps strenghten the finger mussles and also the dexterity to move fast around the fretboard, of course, this is just a basic routine moving up and down the fretboard, more advanced scales can be found on Ultimate-Guitar tab. Once again, please use a metranome when playing these scales, start slow and you will gradually find yourself playing better in terms of feel and ability to know if you have played a wrong note or skipped a fret by accident. This applys to all instruments XD , good luck and enjoy!
