Dobro Fills With F# Major

F# Major runs 7 notes to the octave. Below it is laid onto this chair's GBDGBD neck with every F# marked, because what a fill needs mid-song is not the pattern — it is where the root is when the chord changes under it.

Bright, resolved, and stable. The foundation of Western tonal music and the most common mode in pop, classical, folk, and jazz.

Heard in: Pop, classical, country, folk, gospel — the default major tonality of Western music.

The dobro slides into notes rather than fretting them cleanly, so a scale here is a target list for the bar more than a set of stops — the slide finds the pitch, the scale says which pitch to find.

Play it slowly against the audio until the shape stops being a shape, then take it to a song in F# and let the melody pick its own notes out of it.
