"Now we are going to take a look at the actual scales which lays down on tab. Very easy. Again this is your tab string down to your low string that is what these lines represent and we start right here on the bottom string 11th fret. That is your E flat and we got 11 fret, 13,15 and you have that again 11,13,15 on the next string. Then we crunch it, right here you have your 12,13,14,12,13,15. So this is great information and you want to write this down at home so you can reference back to it. Especially when we go through and analyze the tune so when we have a B flat chord you can go. B flat that is on the 13th fret and you can start your new scale right on this fret then apply the correct scale. Say you have a D chord okay a D that is out of the 12th fret and you can go and analyze it. We would go over it alphabetically of the names of the entire scale in the next segment. But right now you want to make sure you have this tab written down and under your fingers 11,13,15,11,13,15,12, 13,15,12,13,15. You really wanted to get that pattern in your print. "
