The Locrian Scale.

The locrian mode is the seventh mode of the major scale, in other words, playing the locrian is the same as playing a major scale starting at the seventh note.

The finger pattern for the locrian mode is as follows;

In this example we are playing the F# locrian scale, starting at the 2nd fret of the 6th (low E) string. Note that from the fifth sting down, this pattern is identical to the phrygian pattern that we learned previously.

The note marked in red is the beginning of the relative minor scale - in this case E minor.

Black Notes: These positions should be fretted with the first finger.
Blue Notes: These positions should be fretted with the second finger.
Green Notes: These positions should be fretted with the third finger.
White Notes: These positions should be fretted with the fourth finger.
