Phrygian Scales on guitar: Diagrams and Tabs

Easy Way To Learn Guitar Scales

Learn how to play the Phrygian guitar scale with guitar tabs and neck diagrams all along the fretboard.

The Phrygian Scale scale is composed of the Root, Minor Second, Minor Third, Perfect Fourth, Perfect Fifth, Minor Sixth, and Minor Seventh

This scale is composed of the notes C, Db, Eb, F, G, Ab, and Bb

This mode is very similar to the Aeolian mode but with a lowered second. Jazz and film scores are common users of Phrygian modes. The opening music to Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring is a great example of Phrygian.
