Bebop Dorian on electric guitar (D)
Bebop Dorian in D: D – E – F – F# – G – A – B – C. On electric guitar, the slimmer neck invites legato — the same fingering runs with less effort, and the high positions stay comfortable. The box shown runs from fret 1 to 5; the lowest tonic sits on the 4th string, open, and the hand stays put in the region, with no position shift. Plugged into an amp, each chord sustains for as long as you hold it, and the tone — clean or driven — shapes the whole sound.
Climb it slowly and name each degree out loud before speeding up.
In the diagram, each dot carries its scale degree — 1 is the tonic, highlighted.
A scale never lives in one box — bebop Dorian on electric guitar has 4 more positions along the neck. In Chord & Fret, you drill it in Exercise mode — in thirds, pairs or sequences, with the BPM climbing every repetition; walk the scale's shapes along the whole neck, region by region; and turn on the built-in metronome at the same BPM.
