The A minor scale consists of the notes A, B, C, D, E, F and G. Consequently, the interval between 2nd/3rd and 5th/6th scale degree is only a half step, while the remaining notes are a whole step apart. To implement this structure of 1-½-1-1-½-1-1 in all positions of the guitar neck, five fingerings are necessary, in which the root A is marked with a circle. To move these patterns to other keys, use the transposing table.
