Chord & FretMixolydian on guitar (G)
Mixolydian in G: G – A – B – C – D – E – F. 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 — it is the CAGED G form; the lowest tonic sits on the 6th string, fret 3, 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.
A scale never lives in one box — Mixolydian on 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; switch the dot labels between degrees, note names and fingers; and run it up, down or in a full round trip.
