F Mixolydian Bebop Scale — Taro-Patch Ukulele

The F Mixolydian Bebop scale has 8 notes per octave and belongs to the bebop 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 F 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 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 F to use it over real changes.
