That's E-flat (or D-sharp).Originally Posted by: NickFerraI am mostly familiar with pentatonic scales but would like to learn other scales too.
I encourage you to work through Guitar Fundamentals 2 in which I cover diatonic scales, how to practice & use them in depth.

[QUOTE=NickFerra]Bm, A, and G. I use the Bm pentatonic scale and it sounds great! I'm having fun creating some lead parts to it. Is there a major scale I can use for this progression?
D major is the relative major of B minor. They have the same notes but are rooted on D instead of B.
You can learn more about how to play various major scale patterns here:

Also, if you are already familiar with the pentatonic scales, then check out this tutorial that shows how the pentatonic boxes are simply another way of viewing the diatonic scales.
