Chord & FretMixolydian ♭6 on electric guitar (E)
Mixolydian ♭6 in E: E – F# – G# – A – B – C – D. 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 4; the lowest tonic sits on the 6th 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.
Once the shape is memorized, play the box in thirds — the real memory test.
In the diagram, each dot carries its scale degree — 1 is the tonic, highlighted.
A scale never lives in one box — Mixolydian ♭6 on electric guitar has 4 more positions along the neck. In Chord & Fret, you hear the scale in the instrument's own voice, synthesized string by string; flip between position boxes and three-notes-per-string; and choose to start from the tonic or play the full box.
