DADGAD left-handed scale chart
C Harmonic Minor Left-Handed Guitar Scale Chart
Harmonic Minor scale notes, mirrored lefty fretboard positions and standard tab in DADGAD.
C Harmonic Minor in DADGAD tuning gives you the notes C, D, D#, F, G, G#, B across a mirrored left-handed fretboard. DADGAD encourages drones and modal movement, which makes mirrored left-handed charts especially useful because familiar standard shapes stop behaving normally. The mirrored fretboard helps left-handed players keep the leap to the major 7th visually anchored instead of chasing it by memory.

Charts are mirrored for left-handed players. Standard tablature below stays unchanged because tab does not flip with handedness.

Context
How To Use This Page
Harmonic Minor feels dramatic, classical and sharply directional and is useful for neo-classical leads, dark cadences and cinematic melodies.
If a teacher points to an unusual stretch at the top of the pattern, flip the visual map but keep the tab untouched.
Spotlight the major 7th so the scale does not blur into natural minor
DADGAD feels open, droning and harmonically spacious. It rewards left-handed players who want ringing accompaniment and modal colours.
