Chord & FretBebop Dorian on ukulele (D)
Bebop Dorian in D: D – E – F – F# – G – A – B – C. On the ukulele, the high reentrant G reshuffles the pattern — the scale climbs and falls in compact regions. The box shown runs from fret 1 to 4; the lowest tonic sits on the 3rd string, fret 2, and the hand stays put in the region, with no position shift. Its soft nylon strings sound warm and mellow, light enough to float gently over a song.
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 — bebop Dorian on ukulele 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 box by box along the whole neck; and turn on the built-in metronome at the same BPM.
