Yeah. I got where you were coming from when you explained how you put to pentatonics together, and you get an altered scale. Alittle advanced I'd say, but it is a nice to see how it works out that way. I understand how every scale has modes, and coincidentally certain modes have modes of there own that make up another scales. It's all a matter of how many ways you can either alter and look at a simple major scale. Simply, and combination of 5-12 notes makes a scale. Anything less than 5 is consider a broken chord. Like the E pentatonic major, take out the 2nd degree and you have a broken Emaj6 chord. I have my great grandfathers manuscript from where he studied at the warsaw conservatory (academy where frederick chopin attended), and it's got endless amounts of music theory information. Although I wouldn't say there's much on pentatonics and how they come together like you said. There is quite a bit of information that I don't even see in other theory books. Just not much guitar related stuff, mostly classical theory and some contemporary ideas. That's why I come here. :)
