Lydian Augmented scale essentials
- Interval formula

Practice the F# Lydian Augmented sound
- Say and play the scale: Play F# → G# → A# → C → D → D# → F → 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 C (#4), D (#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 2–6), 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.
