Scale Reference Guide
Found this surfing the web, incredibly easy to use, no stupid crap, straight to the point!
ScaleFinder | Visual guide to scales and modes for guitar

I used to have a scales book when I was a kid, well, times change! Wish I had this back in the day!

Enjoy!

Learn the fretboard and what intervals look like on the board and you wouldn't need this.

Can you devise one for Arpeggios ...Like for instance you want an

A minor arpeggio that begins at the 1st fret and goes all the way up to say

the 15 the fret area ?

That would be an awesome study

Dear Slappy. Thanks for including the "Hungarian Minor Scale". You've now piqued my interest on finding scales that might approximate microtonal uses from other cultures.

One glaring omission tho': Diminished and Whole tone scales. (Okay that's two. Sorry)

VERY nice work.

Thanks Harmony. In the past I have overlooked the lessons section and only recently have come here peering about. I see that there are many many gems that I have missed and I appreciate you resurfacing them again. Like the BB King lesson from Phil..... How did I ever miss that??!!?

I'm a beginner that has been learning to play guitar a little over a year but I have learned that after the 12th fret every scale just repeats itself only a octave higher.

Is this right?
