There are 7 modes in a scale and on a guitar there are 3 different patterns for each scale. Learn all of them and you can play 90 percent of pop rock country music. There is also a Harmonic minor scale. It is an Arabic sounding scale that is also great for rock, Spanish and Mediterranean sounds. There is also a melodic minor scale that is used frequently in jazz. If we include the harmonic major scale our music improvisation theory lesson covers using the flat 3s and flat 6s of any scale.Add to that the whole half, half whole diminished scales and the augmented scale and you have just about every possible pattern to play.
Learn to arpeggiate all 28 modes and you'll have serious upper hand in improvisation.
