[Harp-L] Bebop tuning (was Bill Barrett)

[Gary Lehmann]

Just to be clear—
A bebop scale has eight tone, usually the major seventh and dominant seventh are both included, but there are others.
Changing blow 4 to an A doesn’t add tones, there are still 7 tones, it just gives you a nice enharmonic.
So C6 tuning is not a bebop tuning.
