Open E left-handed scale chart

F Phrygian Dominant Left-Handed Guitar Scale Chart

Phrygian Dominant scale notes, mirrored lefty fretboard positions and standard tab in Open E.

F Phrygian Dominant in Open E tuning gives you the notes F, F#, A, A#, C, C#, D# across a mirrored left-handed fretboard. Open E is big, direct and highly resonant, which suits left-handed players who want open-string power without losing a major tonal centre. The mirrored layout makes the signature b2-to-3 shape much easier to understand if you are copying from right-handed lesson content.

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

Overview

Phrygian Dominant feels bright inside a dark frame, with a strong exotic pull and is useful for metal leads, flamenco-inspired riffs and dominant vamp writing.

Lefty Translation

Keep the chart for left-handed navigation and the tab for exact sequencing when a phrase gets rhythmically dense.

Practice Cue

Feature the jump from b2 to 3 early so the mode reveals itself instantly

Tuning Context

Open E feels bright, ringing and slide-ready. It makes bright rhythm guitar and open slide vocabulary feel immediate.
