Scale Wizard: Guitar Scales

Scale Wizard helps guitar players understand how chords, scales and keys connect across the fretboard.

Connect chord diagrams to scales, target better notes when soloing, explore CAGED shapes, understand modes, and use live chord and key detection to see what fits the music you are playing.

Build from pentatonic basics through major and minor scales, CAGED shapes and modes — with everything shown visually across the guitar fretboard.


Connect Chords to Scales

Explore a comprehensive guitar chord library and see how chords connect to scales across the fretboard. View chord tones, scale notes and related patterns together, making it easier to understand how chords fit within scales, modes and keys.

Improve Chord Note Targeting

Learn how specific scale notes relate to chords in a key. Scale Wizard highlights the important chord tones inside scale patterns, helping you create more melodic solos and target stronger notes over chord changes.

Master the Fretboard with CAGED

See how major and minor CAGED chord shapes fit with scale patterns across the full length of the fretboard. Use CAGED to connect chords, scales and arpeggios into one visual map of the neck.

Detect Chords and Keys from Music

Use your device’s microphone to detect chords and identify the key of music around you. See matching scales and chord tones across the fretboard so you can play along, practise ideas and improvise with more confidence.

Understand Modes

Using the Circle of Fifths, Scale Wizard explains how chord progressions suggest a mode and highlights the notes that make each mode sound distinct. Learn how modes relate to chords, keys and tonal centres.
