Guitar: G Harmonic Minor Over the Changes

G Harmonic Minor runs 7 notes to the octave, laid out here on EADGBE with every G flagged. Mid-chorus the pattern is not what you need; where the root is when the chord changes underneath you is.

Dark and dramatic. The raised 7th pulls hard toward the tonic, and the wide step from the b6 up to it gives the scale an exotic, almost Middle-Eastern tension.

Heard in: Classical minor-key harmony, neoclassical metal (Yngwie Malmsteen), flamenco-tinged rock, klezmer, and Balkan melodies.

A guitar chorus is a single line with the comp dropped, so a scale here is what the picking hand walks through between the two or three phrases it actually meant to play.

Play it slowly against the audio until it stops being a shape, then put it over two bars of a form and let the chord tones decide which of the notes you actually keep.
