Anyway, the aug 2 is what they term the interval between the 6th and the raised 7 in your harmonic minor scale. For instance, in the last post, they mentioned E to F## ... which is the same ( basically ) as G, right? In this case, the scale would be G# Harmonic minor ... G# A# B C# D# E F## G#. in 'proper' theory practice , you have to use each letter , alphabetically... so you cant say ' E G G#'... Yeah, i know , its a bit anal but , its ALSO reallly old theory.

An aug 2nd is just a name for an interval. On the guitar it would be a difference of 3 frets frt 1 = C frt 3 = call it what you like. What would we call a chord with a major 2nd in it especially if the chord had a major 3rd in it too. :rolleyes: I see these chords called aug 2nd, on tab sites when I do there is no 7th present. Hey maybe thats why they are free
