mmmmm Neapolitan is 3 sweet flavors. Tasty licks.

yeah I guess I really should have had three licks for this scale.

neopolitan minor is heptatonic, flat 2nd, 3rd and 6th which is the same as phrgian major.but since this is a minor context it would be incorrect to compare the 2 as "enharmonic" or "homotonic" it would ultimately depend on the tonic center or strong point in the underlying piece in both case. but reali hu give a stuff as long as it sounds good, thats the aim. i play violin piano and guitar and ive only noticed this squabling between guitarists y is that

@ibanezxiphos700 Tongue my sweaty asshole, you teen age trailer trash pussy. I wasn't paying attention to what that heavy metal fucknut was playing. I misunderstood your ambiguously worded comment, in which you seemed to be saying that a Neapolitan scale in enharmonic with the parallel Phrygian mode. Fortunately for you, this exchange took place online, and you and your worthless piece o' shit family get to live another day in trailer park squalor.

@Hoopermazing

holy fuck, you are retarded, the scale he plays here is A, Bb,C,D,E,F,G which is all of the notes which fit into A phrygian, please fuck a goat and gtfo,

@arcarsenal420 The Neapolitan scale is a non-western SCALE. It's fairly common in Gypsy music. A Neapolitan chord is something altogether different, being a major scale built on the flatted second degree.

@ibanezxiphos700 The Neapolitan minor scale is NOT the same as the phrygian mode. E Phrygian is (E, F, G, A, B, C, D, E.) E Neapolitan is (E, F, G, A, B, C#, D#, E.) E Neapolitan minor is (E, F, G, A, B, C, D#, E.) Phrygian Dominant is (E, F, G#, A, B, C, D, E.) If any those sound the same to you, you are tone deaf.

@arcarsenal420 every mode is a scale you dumbass.

@arcarsenal420

kay, so i guess what your doing isnt hypocritical in the slightest

[arcarsenal420]

@ibanezxiphos700 "so when you say neapolitan, you mean phrygian." implies that he was still correct in calling it a 'scale'

either way, you were so happy to correct someone and call them a noob and be a prick and now you're trying to mince words to hide the fact that you didnt have a clue what a neapolitan was anyway and were really just dropping in on the video to be a jerk.

@arcarsenal420

its funny how i didnt even say phrygian was a scale i simply said phrygian, or that i didnt say neapolitan was a scale. why do you assume that i did?
