What's the difference between E Nepolitian Minor and E phrygian? Do you use one in a special situation? Are they EXACTLY the same?

Here is the link I found earlier as a source for my understanding of the scale.Neo. Minor It's identical to the 5th link you provided. http://home.cybertron.com/~brtubb/text/027.txt (number 116 I think)

The internet is full of informationaly errors. Just look at some of the free TAB available. The best resource is usually books from respected companies. What books do you have with this subject?

Most of the other links you provide state exactly what you say and you are probably right but it doesn't change the fact that it's the same thing as E phrygian.

Ok. I can answer that real quick, with the same link you are talking about:
http://home.cybertron.com/~brtubb/text/027.txt
*The scale number 1 and the scale 25, prove that the Major and Minor are not the same.
*The Scale number 139 is the Neopolitan Minor, which is what I suggested,
and you called it Synthetic first, and then non-diatonic; and I proved you wrong.

You are looking at the wrong scale.
Scale number 116 is a Neopolitan.

See the difference?
The first is Minor, yours is just Neopolitan, and then there is another called "Neopolitan Major".
Each one with its own structure.
