Intervals of the Major Scale in Seven Positions

The major scale is built from the intervals root (1), second (2), major third (3), fourth (4), fifth (5), sixth (6) and major seventh (j7). To reach these notes in all positions on the guitar neck, seven distinct fingering patterns are formed and given the names of church mode I-VII. To move a pattern to a key other than A major, use the transposing table.
