Open D left-handed scale chart
A# Phrygian Dominant Left-Handed Guitar Scale Chart
Phrygian Dominant scale notes, mirrored lefty fretboard positions and standard tab in Open D.
A# Phrygian Dominant in Open D tuning gives you the notes A#, B, D, D#, F, F#, G# across a mirrored left-handed fretboard. Open D spreads a big major sonority across the guitar, which makes both scale mapping and chord design feel more spacious. The mirrored layout makes the signature b2-to-3 shape much easier to understand if you are copying from right-handed lesson content.
