Practice the F Lydian Augmented sound
- Say and play the scale: Play F → G → A → B → C# → D → E → F up and back down, naming the degrees 1 → 2 → 3 → #4 → #5 → 6 → 7 → 1 as you go.
- Hear its defining tones: pause on B (#4), C# (#5) before landing on F. Listen for how those characteristic tones color the phrase.
- Connect the positions: Work through all 7 position charts. Start in Position 1 (frets 1–5), then repeat a short phrase from the root in each shape. Use the full fretboard chart to find the next F as you move between positions.
