[Harp-L] country scale questions

[Arthur Jennings]

That's the major pentatonic scale. The major pentatonic scale is the major scale minus the notes fa and ti. 

Those notes are the fifth, sixth, root, second, third, fifth, sixth and root (sol, la, do, re, mi, sol, la do) of a major scale.

There's another octave at the top end: 6 blow, 6 draw, 7 draw, 8 draw, 8 blow, 9 blow (do, re, mi, sol, la, do).
