  • This scale is also known as Phrygian Major. Normal Phrygian scale with a Major 3rd. You can also play A Harmonic Minor over an E dominant vamp and get the scale that way.

  • I've been searching for Phrygian Dominant tabs for a while now. This really helped. Thanks a lot :D 

  • Music theory is beautiful

  • this is basicaly the same as the A Aeolian scale in the 5th position, with the exception of that G note on the B string, its an F# on the Aeolian scale, and i believe that G# on the D string is wrong too...

  • @bubywashere b3 and b6

  • Im the viewer 29999, so close...!

  • Dominant? o:

    I know regular Phrygian, but what makes a Phrygian Dominant... uh what it is?

  • @ThaThing1337x The major 3rd which is a G# gives it this special flavor.. watch Theodore Ziras (Tziras on the right column) lick 62, he shows you to shred the E Phrygian Dominant with the last section that is shown here.. starting.. He explains you the scale and shows you that giving more expression on the root note (E) and the major 3d (G#) to shred it with style. Plus he provides an excellent 80 bpm backing track to practice this awesome scale on his video description. Try it, its real worthy

  • @QcMetalMusican

    Sorry, but I found out next day that Phrygian Dominant is Harmonic Minor's fifth mode.

    That was all I wanted to know, but thanks for taking the time trying to help me (:

  • Anyone who thinks this is a harmonic minor scale is a moron.

  • @KyleStonehouse you are moron

  • It's E Spanish/Jewish Minor, which is the 5th mode of A Harmonic Minor.

  • Love this scale ;D

  • hey mate, thanks for the tab if i wanted to play chords behind this what would work?

  • Very helpful m8 :)

  • that's A Harmonic Minor Scale, starting in E of course...

  • hey thx for the vid,do u mind doin another lesson about the harmonic minor scale? cause im a beginner and i want to learn these things,and its easier if u can tab it,thx

  • yeah!thanks bro'!!

  • sharing is caring.. thks mate..

  • thanks bro for sharing here.. you help other you know thanks ;-)

  • @Nurjamizal Glad it helped brother

  • @CrispyPs Can you play this same shape anywhere on the fretboard, or will it change thanks.

  • @mrmcsick Learn notes and theory, you will get stuck and never be able to do better, because you don't understand what you are playing

  • @asphixa but its sooo hard

  • @asphixa i know none theory. i know how to play the guitar and how to solo but do you a good website or book for guitar theory?? its about time i can name what im playin

  • lol but its annoying how my wrist cracks everytime on the low E string haha

  • wow this is a good scale to practice if you have trouble stretching your fingers

  • What are the other positions of this scale????

  • There's a subtle difference between the harmonic minor and Phrygian dominant,

    E Phrygian Dominant is:

    E F G# A B C D E

    E Harmonic Minor is:

    E F G# A B C D# E

    Very subtle difference.

  • Ohh now I understand whats phrygiant dominant so, you just need to flatten the 3rd note... Thx for the comment haha.

  • e harmonic minor hasnt got a g #

    but a f #

  • @rtfan13 The examples in the video are from the "E Phrygian dominant" that is the relative of the "A Harmonic Minor" ... and both have the "G#"

  • @renanrabelo yea sorry i was on a different mindset anyway

  • @rtfan13 e harmonic minor has two sharps, an f# and a d# :)

  • ofcourse the seventh note has to be lowered half a step thats what the dominant stands for i guess

  • @zackfacee The thing is E minor is actually from G major so it has F# meaning that E harmonic minor has F# and a D # because Harmonic means higher the seventh note a half step.. you should study your theory better

  • @zackfacee You mean F#. E Harmonic Minor is E F# G A B C D#.

  • @zackfacee hey hey. eminor doesn't have a G#. Don't fool yourself. eminor is the relative minor of Gmajor (which has only 1 sharp). How to get the relative minor: From the tonic of the major scale, go down 3 semitones. Voila! Then, the minor scale will carry the same sharp/flat. There are 3 types of minor scales. The harmonic (raise the 7th by one semitone), the natural (same same), and the melodic (raise the 6th and 7th by one semitone going up but it becomes a natural minor when descending.).

  • thats the way modes work. basically phrygian dominant mode is a harmonic minor scale starting on its fifth degree.

    A harmonic minor: A B C D E F G# A

    E Phrygian Dominant: E F G# A B C D E

    you just change your tonal focus

    play your A Harmonic minor scale starting on A and ending on A

    then play your A harmonic minor scale starting and ending on E

    you should get the feeling for it

  • Thanks a bunch man I love this scale :D Keep rocking \m/

  • thanks very much

  • thnx

  • bueno
