Result

This page opens the fingering chart with A Natural minor already selected — the diagram above is live, so you can inspect every position. The notes of the scale: A, B, C, D, E, F, G.

The natural minor shares its notes with the relative major but starts from a different tonic — darker in color and the backbone of countless songs.

Switch the key, scale type or display options in the controls above — the chart redraws instantly and everything runs locally in your browser.

Accepted Formats & Rules

  • Major, three minor forms, pentatonics, and blues
  • One-finger-per-fret or Simandl 1-2-4 system

Key Benefits

✓ Positions that hold the complete scale are marked, so patterns stay self-contained.
✓ Dots switch between finger numbers, note names, and scale degrees.

Use Cases

  • • Building walking lines and need the scale under your hand in one position?
  • • Comparing one-finger-per-fret with Simandl fingering for low-position playing?
  • • Checking where the root sits on the E and A strings before a rehearsal?
