String Skipping Thingy


Hey all. *
I have to preface this by saying my knowledge of theory, well....it sucks. *So, take this as one of those EVH-type 'falling-down-the-stairs-and-landing-on-your-feet" things. *If you dig it, cool. *If you hate it, tough. *LOL *Here we go...

String Skipping Thingy
The 10th and 12th frets are a couple of my favorites. *No sharps or flats, and I can quickly get a bearing on where my music should go by referring back to either of those two. *I do love them. :-)

&amp;#0124;------------------------------------10-12--&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;-----------------------------10-12---------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;----------------------10-12----------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;---------------10-12-----------------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;--------10-12------------------------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;-10-12-------------------------------------&amp;#0124;

Simple enough, right?

While noodling around the other night, I came up with this fun little string-skipper: *

&amp;#0124;------------------------------10-----15--&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;-----------------------10--------12------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;---------------10---------12-------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;---------10--------12--------------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;-------------12---------------------------&amp;#0124;
&amp;#0124;-10-12-----------------------------------&amp;#0124;

Of course, it's movable to where it works best for you.

It works good with my ears, but if any Theory Masters have improvements on this, feel free to post. :-) *

:thumbsup: Pretty neat, Kev.

I came up with the following, based on yours, which are more mode-oriented:
