I thought of a way of organising scales based on how many notes they can have in common if they are optimally arranged. Similarity can be objectively quantified in terms of number of notes shared. IT is possible to find ways of moving between scales that have several different notes by moving through scales that have more notes in common with each other.
I compiled tables of comparison for about 60 scale forms (and that excludes modes like say Aeolian is a mode of the major scale).
If this doesn't make sense then visit my brother's website at www.classaxe.com and go to "friends", "Andrew F."
Other than that I'm proud for working so hard at guitar; it's not a natural aptitude I'm totally ham fisted at most things but that doesn't stop me from being able to tap arpeggios out with my fingers and thumbs. I'm the only player I know who uses the right hand thumb in my playing. If you want a tutorial on it there are some on this site.
If I couldn't laugh at myself how could I laugh at someone less ridiculous?
