D# Mixolydian Bebop Scale — Soprano Ukulele

The D# Mixolydian Bebop scale has 8 notes per octave and belongs to the bebop family. Here it is mapped onto the Soprano Ukulele's GCEA strings, position by position, with the root highlighted so the pattern anchors to D# wherever you play it.

Mixolydian with a passing major 7th between the b7 and the octave — the bright, bluesy dominant sound with a chromatic slide that keeps every chord tone on a downbeat. Slick, swinging, and quintessentially bebop.

Heard in: Jazz lines over dominant seventh chords, blues changes, and rhythm changes — the workhorse bebop scale.

Reentrant tuning means the top string of the chart is not the lowest note — the maps below follow the Soprano Ukulele as it actually sounds, not a borrowed guitar chart.

Play each position slowly against the audio until the shape and the sound lock together, then take it to the progressions in D# to use it over real changes.
