Chord & FretHarmonic minor on guitar (A)
Harmonic minor in A: A – B – C – D – E – F – G#. On the guitar, six strings open the scale into wide shapes — there is room to choose the region of the neck that sings best. The box shown runs from fret 1 to 4; the lowest tonic sits on the 5th string, open, and the hand stays put in the region, with no position shift. Its hollow wooden body gives every chord a warm, natural ring that blooms and fades on its own.
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.
This is one shape of harmonic minor on guitar — this neck alone holds 4 more mapped positions. In Chord & Fret, you drill it in Exercise mode — in thirds, pairs or sequences, with the BPM climbing every repetition; switch the dot labels between degrees, note names and fingers; and turn on the built-in metronome at the same BPM.
