.....Does anyone know any more organized and diverse sites for scales other than this one?

I don't sorry, but check out Schmange's page for the 3 note per string scales. They opened up a whole bunch of new possibilities for me, and I've been playing for 20 years and never even heard of em before.

.....Hmmmm.....That's not exactly what I'm looking for....I know all the modes and scales he's talking about. I'm looking for stuff that I haven't really heard of, you know? Thanks anyway.

Have you ever messed w/diminished? It opens up a lot of cool possabillities.
C D Eb F Gb Ab A B
Try making up your own scales
I also have fun mix & matching scales, combine a blues scale with a Dorian, or a major w/a Lydian etc...the possibilities are endless as long as you keep asking yourself "what if"
p.s. I wish they had spell check on this site!!

creating your own scales is easy. simply take half steps and whole steps and rearrange them into a 7 note pattern. You can even change the scale descending ( like melodic minor)

sixstring....

when i rock like this... its like the creature coming out of the black lagoon

you don't have to stick w/ 7 note scales, try putting 8 or more notes into your scale (a dorian w/an added b5 sounds cool for instance)
Try creating scales w/fewer notes and larger intervals, have fun & keep asking yourself "what if", you'll never run out of ideas

one of my old teachers you'd to say this about playin guitar: "you have to learn in one lifetime what it would take the average person 3 lifetimes too accomplish".
