Segment L in Scale Runs

Today's concept

You already play diatonic L segments — they appear wherever you ascend two whole steps in a row (pattern: 0-2-4). In major scale, diatonic L appears at degrees 1-2-3, 4-5-6, and 5-6-7. Note: pentatonic has its own L type (0-3 semitones, a minor third, 2 notes) — a different shape sharing the same name, introduced in Sprint 2.

Play the same scale on string 3. Identify and name all L segments.

2

Play an E minor pentatonic run. Find all L patterns and name them as you go.
