A# Mixolydian Bebop — Guitarrón

A# Mixolydian Bebop is 8 notes per octave (bebop family), drawn here as position boxes on the Guitarrón's ADGCEA grid with the root flagged in each — learn one box deeply, then let the overlaps carry you into the next.

Mixolydian with a passing major 7th between the b7 and the octave — the bright, bluesy dominant sound with a chromatic slide that keeps every chord tone on a downbeat. Slick, swinging, and quintessentially bebop.

Heard in: Jazz lines over dominant seventh chords, blues changes, and rhythm changes — the workhorse bebop scale.

The grid under these maps is the standard one, so the boxes are the boxes guitarists already know — the ADGCEA grid.

Play each box top to bottom until the roots feel like home base, then practice crossing between boxes mid-phrase — neck freedom is exactly that crossing, nothing more.
