And, Will, it's these possibilities that you've highlighted, that simultaneously frustrate & fascinate. Piano players have it easy. A note exists in one, fixed position, but on the shifting sands of the pedal steel they pop up all over the bleeding place :evil:
To paraphrase Mr.Dick Emmery, "It is awful, but I Like it" :guitar:

It's been pointed out, quite correctly, that I've actually started some of these scales in the wrong position. the scales are correct, but modally at least, they should start on the root note, and some do not.
My bad!

Video 2, the A+B scale should start at the 10th fret. this gives you the root and its third.
the A+F scale starts at fret 6, and the A+E scale is correct. fret 8.
Hope thats all clear,
sorry.
