B Major Scale — Taro-Patch Ukulele

The B Major scale has 7 notes per octave and belongs to the common family. Here it is mapped onto the Taro-Patch Ukulele's GCEA strings, position by position, with the root highlighted so the pattern anchors to B wherever you play it.

Bright, resolved, and stable. The foundation of Western tonal music and the most common mode in pop, classical, folk, and jazz.

Heard in: Pop, classical, country, folk, gospel — the default major tonality of Western music.

Reentrant tuning means the top string of the chart is not the lowest note — the maps below follow the Taro-Patch 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 B to use it over real changes.
