Chord & FretMelodic minor on guitar (A)
Melodic 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.
Read the dots by degree: 1 is the tonic (highlighted); the rest follow the scale's formula.
One box of melodic minor on guitar is the start: the other 4 positions of this neck follow in the app. In Chord & Fret, you drill it in Exercise mode — in thirds, pairs or sequences, with the BPM climbing every repetition; flip between position boxes and three-notes-per-string; and turn on the built-in metronome at the same BPM.
