This guitar lesson explores how Scott Henderson uses the Whole/Half Diminished scale for some really amazing outside sounds over a static m7 chord progression. This is a lesser known scale choice that isn't covered much in the world of outside playing - but it sounds awesome, give it a go!

Many moons ago, I happened upon an article where it stated about playing outside. It suggested playing a major pentatonic from the flattened fifth position of a minor pentatonic. It's clearly the most dissonant scale you could play. So, learning how to phrase it, and make some sense with it, was everything! Try it, you might like it.
Cheers Spooky - sounds like that might be the minor pentatonic starting on the tritone (as there's literally nothing in common), but you're right, not easy to make it sound great! I've got plans for a pentatonic sub lesson so I might include this! 💪🏼
Scott is my favorite guitarist of all time. TRIBAL TECH!!!!!
Yes!! 80s TT was insane - I've also got a lot of love for that Vital Techtones album 🤘🏻
Great vid, simple explanation and very effective. I'm following you.👏👏
Awesome - great to have you onboard!
This one best scott Henderson lessons ever seen..thanks mate

Awesome - thanks a lot! 💪🏼🙏🏼🎸
Awesome! Scott's Melodic Phrasing VHS changed my music life way back when. Great job distilling his approach down to useable tools.
Very cool! Totally agreed, what a great video - thanks 🙌🏼
Great clear teaching plus actually putting it into realistic use....
Well done.
Thank you very much! 🙌🏼🎸

Thanks a lot Michel - I hope I did him justice! Cheers for watching 🎸
Great video. Thank you very much. And it's amazing that you answer the comments. Respect.
I try! Many thanks 🙏🏼
Great playing, first time in years I feel that I have had this explained in such a brilliant way! Subscribed!
That's really awesome to hear! Welcome aboard!
Amazing channel and material!! With this quality of teaching, production, and playing, I would think 100k subscribes will come quickly!!!!
Wowwww that would be amazing!! Thanks for the kind words 😄
This is a game changer for me.
I know the dim scale but you patterned it so well over the neck in many ways.
Thank you so much!
That's so great to hear Thomas - I'm very happy to have inspired you! 🙌🏼
Great playing and fantastic sound, dry & clear.
Thank you! 🙌🏼
I just discovered your channel 1 week ago. Man first of all your playing and your tone are sweet!
I watch a lot of guitar educational videos on youtube (for 20 years now), and yours are the best I've found since, PERIOD
It's so fluent, straight to the point, and clear. I understand them instantly. Thank you!
Wow that's amazing! Thanks for the lovely comment and glad I could help 😄
Found your channel yesterday, fantastic content. Thanks for the effort you’ve put into these.
You're most welcome - glad you like the vids! 🤘🏻🎸
Hey Steve, great lesson! Well done on tips and explanation. Enjoyed it!
Hey, thanks! 🙌🏼
Great insight and playing. Thank you for showing examples with the actual phrasing ala Scott. Take care!!
Thanks Javier - much appreciated! 🙏🏼
'Face First' a track by Scott's band Tribal Tech ( one of the greatest, most underrated fusion bands ever, imo) available on CZcams, still blows my head off. Love Scott Henderson. You got another sub.The Maj 7 on a minor chord is really common, as is the flat 5, so the only 'real' tension is the sharp 5, ( which could be a flat 6 so that's not too outrageous. Nat minor.) Neat. ( Pat Martino does this a lot too...Or did 😢) . Cheers from across the pond. 👍
Hello my friend from across the water! Totally agree - what a great tune - the other Scott plays an absolutely burning keys solo on that 🔥 Another interesting thing about that scale is the way it avoids the 5th completely! Glad to have you on board 😄
Really great content!
Thanks Wesley - much appreciated! 🙏🏼
Just found your channel, great stuff. A lot of this material is stuff I’m already familiar with but it’s s great to hear it explained in such a clear and patient way.
Thanks Neil - much appreciated! 🙏🏼🎸
Absolutely brilliant lesson. Top notch
Glad you enjoyed it - many thanks! 🙌🏼
This video is truly nutritious to my playing, awesome! Thanks a lot!
Nice one Jason - glad to have been nutritious! 🙌🏼😅
Thanks a lot Steve for your inspirational lesson. I will look at it tomorrow with a fresh and hopefully open-mind! Cheers!
Thanks Michael, you're very welcome! 🙏🏼
Great lesson!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Javier! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Sounds so sweet
@robjknight6501 thank you Rob! 🙌🏼
Brilliant, love this. Thanks
Great! 🙏🏼
This is truly magnificent. Your guitar is cool, your sound is stellar, and you have great chops! So glad CZcams suggested you, Steve! Liked, Subscribed, Shared! 🙏
Wow, thank you! Great to have you on board! 🎸
Scott, the best guitar!!!

Different level breakdown. Instant subscribe.
Awesome! Thanks for the sub 😁🎸
Thanks. Learning a lot
Cheers Ian! 🙏🏼
Great job Steve ! Thxs 🙏!
Cheers Dave - much appreciated! 🙌🏼
Hi Steve, the dim scale was always a bulky and some kind of mystery to me until I found your vid. Your great explanation supports me to see and hear that scale under different points of view and lifts my understanding immediately to the next level. Precious content! Now you made me curious about your other vids. Kind regards from Germany
That's amazing Wolfgang - great to hear!
More great stuff Steve! Always figured there was some sort of "logic-reasoning" behind Scott H and/or Michael L's playing! Knowing the path makes the journey that much more fulfilling!
Cool, thanks Tom - those two certainly know their onions! 🧅
Excellent lesson ! Thank you
You're very welcome! 🎸
Great work.
Thank you! Cheers! 🤘🏻
Thanks for this!
My pleasure! 🎸
Modern jazz like this

Dude, another great video. Just finding your stuff. Hope you keep this awesome content coming! Definitely subscribed. Wicked phrasing ideas
Awesome, thanks so much - glad you're enjoying them! Yes the YT journey continues! 💪🏼
Very nice outside sounds....Very Hendersonish...Scott is somethin' else.....
Thanks Staffan - I totally agree - Scott's the man!
Vvery Scottish indeed. Fantastic content. You are a natural!
Thanks very much! 🙏🏼🎸
Simplified approach and clear! Plenty to chew on, Thnx
Cheers Jimbo - glad you enjoyed it - I've been trying to finesse my approach! 🙏🏼
@@SteveAllsworth Cool, I like fresh approaches that don't pain the brain to much, lol. I'll check back to your ch here. Maybe some chordal movements into the changes is on the horizon. Like 2-5 into the 1 concepts.
@@jimbo5550 nice, yeah I'm sure there'll be some of that in future!
Thanks so much!
No worries! Glad you enjoyed it 🎸
Good Tips , Thanks !
My pleasure! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great lesson! That “tip of the iceberg” graphic got me, subscribed!
Haha - thanks - glad my stupid joke had an effect! 😂
Great. Saw Scott many times during my time at Musicians Institute whe he was teaching there. He’s something special. And these licks and ideas did sound like him so thanks 👍.
Very jealous! He's very special indeed - glad you enjoyed it - thanks for watching!
He was very cool. I checked school when I was 28 walking down halls. With counselor I heard killer guitar. Dam that s a student. ?? He laughed. That s scott Henderson . ( that was my teacher’s favorite player). He goes go in and sit in . He sounded and talked like my teacher. He asked me to play. I played mood for a day , and heartbreaker. He told counselor s I could sit in as un long as I was In town ( he asked how did learn heartbreaker I said my teacher showed me He goes got it rite . Took him to gigs . He was awesome . I couldn’t believe his class had only 5 guys in there. That’s it. That’ place is best deal in the world. Couple hours Morn class . Then rest of day. You sit in with world class guys. Like 😊 scott ,.Studio open all nite. Anybody wants to be good and u can. Go
Awesome! 🤘🏻
Saw him at MI a lot too back in 91-92. Did you by chance live on Lannewood (street close to MI)? Thought that may be the reason for your studio name.
@@Composer19691 that’s exactly where the name of my studio and channel came from. I lived at 7020 Lanewood Ave. Remembering the good times I had there 👍.
Hey Steve!
I just found your channel the other day. You're videos are so easy to understand yet so full of valuable information. Very very inspiring! Thank you so much for making these videos! // Magnus
That really means a lot - thanks Magnus! 🙌🏼
awesome lesson
Thanks! 😃
Thank you. Very useful 🙂
You're very welcome! 🙌🏼🎸
Awesome lesson
Brilliant - thanks very much! 😃
Thanks for share this information :)
You're welcome - thanks for watching!
Super channel ! This approach with "shapes" ( as A.Holdsworth ) is great to have an immediate result . Your examples are so good ,it reminds me Everglades -Vital Tech 👍
Awesome, thank you! Yeah - good ears - that was very much the inspiration!
Such a great lesson
Subscribed. I've not heard much Scott Henderson but will be checking him out. A love of robben fords playing brought me here as I like the outside sound
Awesome - thanks Steve. If you love blues with a bit of outside, you should check out Scott's 'Tore Down House' and 'Dog Party' albums - stunning! 🎸
@@SteveAllsworth thanks for the heads up. I'll Spotify them. I listened to a couple of his tracks and they were a bit too freeform jazz for me. Blues is what I'm into so that suggestion is appreciated 👍
Very cool lesson. Now, to take the next few months trying to absorb this material! 😊
You've got this Rich! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
An incredibly educational video, easily uderstandable theory and killer sound!
@matthiasscheffler548 Hey thanks very much! 🙌🏼🎸
And of course - it's the Analogman that defines your sound!@@SteveAllsworth
best lesson in CZcams ever!
Aww shucks - cheers Wilber! 💪🏻
excelente, muchas gracias !!!!!!!!!!!!!
De nada Emilio! 🙌🏼🙏🏼🎸
notable, lo no podía comprender, ahora lo comprendí, gracias
Me alegro de poder ayudar! Gracias 🙏🏼
This is the best theory/guitar video i've ever seen. This is awesome where have you been?!?!
Thank you! Haha, I've been hiding in plain sight! 😅
Great exploration of ideas! I love the half-whole diminished scale, but it can sound way too obvious. However, these exercises sound fresh and exciting.
That's great to hear - glad you enjoyed the video 🎸🙏🏼
awsome!!!
No you are!! Thanks for watching! 🙌🏼
great content
Thanks Ricardo 🙏🏼
I can tell you've listened to a good amount of Scott's playing. You're able to sound just like him.
Hey thanks very much - yes, love Scott's playing - he's the boss! 🙌🏼
Incredible insights that sound just groovy, once again.
I imagine that it was planned, but just in case ... Saving to a playlist is switched off. I use private playlists to be able to find things again compartmentalized by type. Not that I'm likely to forget this channel ... I'll be buying the funk book this week.
Ah that's awesome - please drop me a line and let me know how you get on with the book! 🕺
@@SteveAllsworth I will drop you a line very soon. Tim
Uow! Great!!
Thank you!
Thx for opening this door for me. God bless you.
Thanks very much Laurent - you're extremely welcome, glad it helped inspire you! 🙌🏼
@@SteveAllsworth I can't wait to get out my job and grab my guitar to practise it !
@@BobMinsky Awesome! When I get a minute I'll put the backing up on YT so you'll have something to practise over 😁
@@SteveAllsworth great idea
awesomeness
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌🏼🎸
Nice video!! Amazing job!! Henderson is a top. Suscribe
Awesome, thank you - great to have you on board! I hope you're a massive George Lynch fan with a name like that! 🤘🏻
Awesome
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 😄
I was listening to Face First today on my playlist and I often wonder how Scotty does it. Today I took action and dig for answers.
Came across your channel and you sir showed me his style on how he operates through this video lesson. you made me enter his world or his mind when it comes to his musical style.
I love your channel because it is so informative and the lesson you impart are easy to digest so I'm subscribing to it now.
Small request. Can you by chance post more Scott Henderson guitar 101 pls sir ? If you have the time.
more on the Scott Henderson lessons pls. Thanks in adv sir Steve !!
Hey thanks so much - got a lot of potential videos in development, but I'd like to revisit Scott at some point! 💪🏼🎸
@@SteveAllsworth Hello sir Steve.
any chance you can do guitar lessons on the styles of 1) Wayne Krantz and 2) Spanky Alford pls ? Im interested to learn from these two great guitarists. Thanks in adv.
Great lesson. BTW I had a '61 that looked just like that in the 80s.
Very cool! I'm sure it was a real vintage unlike mine! 😂
@@SteveAllsworthNo. Mine wasn't vintage at all. It had Kluson style locking tuners which worked great but only looked vintage from a distance and a set of DiMarzio Shockwave actives, all installed by the previous owner. I got it used for about $500 at a shop in Los Angeles. I still loved it. Iwas going to change the pickups to some sort of stacked passive single coils but never got around to it. I wish I did, and I wish I still had that guitar. It just felt so perfect and had a great natural tone, even unplugged. Speaking of Henderson, I've always liked his tone but feel he's really entered a special place since he went to using strats with single coils. They capture a lot more of the nuance of his style. He's evolved wonderfully. He's one of the best.
@@angusorvid8840 Ah yes the regret of selling a great guitar - we've all been there! Yeah, I love his blues stuff - those two blues albums in particular - I'm not a massive fan of his Jeff Beck style whammy bar playing, but he's still incredible!
The only time I saw him play more inside was with Chick Corea where he was very boxed in but still played amazing. With Tribal Tech and Zawinul he had the freedom to go outside. While he's always been a great fusion player, when you hear him lean more into rock and blues the outside magic really pops, because you don't see many players in rock utilizing Henderson's concepts.
Absolutely agree - I love the blues/rock stuff when it's not quite as in your face fusion. Cheers for watching and commenting Angus 🎸🙌🏼
@@SteveAllsworth Scott found a new angle of approach and it works wonders.
Excelente
Thank you! 🙏🏼
The video by Scott Henderson can be viewed directly through Alfred Music. It seems to be a bit hard to get as a hardcopy.
It's a bit frustrating that it's so difficult to get hold of - do you have a direct link for viewing the video? I can only see that the DVD is out of stock...
Wow!!! incredible - thanks for sharing. You have a great sound. Maxon SD9. Please share what amp, digital board or plugin you are using. Thanks!!!
Hey thanks very much! All the details are in the description (nothing digital apart from a bit of delay in Logic) 🙏🏼🎸
super Man!! thanks''
Glad you liked it!
Absolutely amazing ❤ can all those w string and triads BDF n Ab over static A Dominant 7
@@seri1897 In this case, A H/W is the one to use (same as Bb W/H) so just move all these ideas up a fret - bingo! 💪🏼
Cool.
Cheers JJF! 😎
Muito obrigado Steve! Suas aulas sao magnificas! So uma pergunta: Em qual contexto harmonico, podemos usar o exemplo diminuto, de duas notas por corda e as tríades advindas dela? Todos eles, num estático Amin?
Thanks! My Spanish is alright, but Portuguese not so much! I hope I've understood correctly... The diminished is kind of magic as it contains minor7, major7, m7b5, dim7 chords/arpeggios - but they don't all sound great over a minor groove. I personally think the major triads work best, built from 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th degrees of the W/H diminished scale (e.g. in Am it's B, D, F, Ab), but Bm Dm Fm and Abm would function in the same way - they just sound very 'out there'!
Scott plays outside all year
You're not wrong!
@@SteveAllsworth Nor is Scott 😄
HI Steve, thank you for the contents, can I ask you which pickup set do you use on this strat ?
Thanks Giuseppe! I think from memory they're '64 Custom Shop hand wound - I used the neck for all the clean stuff and the bridge with the KOT for the dirty tones. Cheers for watching! 🙏🏼
Thanks a lot 😊! Cheers
So.... Allsworth is like All[an Hold]sworth? 😀Great video btw
Haha, not quite in his league but I'll take it! 🙌🏼
What effects pedal are you using to get that slight distortion?
Analogman King of Tone - great pedal!
I find after you learn how whole half diminished starts on the root note of ionian in major modes and the 1/2 w falls on the root of Melodic Minor and the Minor Blues can be interchanged with other Minor scales it Is up to your ear to decide which diminished sounds best .
it is the utmost of importance to think of scale degrees as Tonic sub Dominant and dominant .
this is really where modal harmony starts and functional harmony ends .
the blues IS modal harmony, or modular harmony as I like to call it because it is different mesurements which is what modular means. modular math is how the calender is created to have some months 30 days and some 31.
in major blues the IV chord likes to be treated
Dominant and V7 likes to have a sub Dominant
suspended country sound
you hear this again and again in Jimi Hendrix Little Wing and Eric Clapton
it is also important to know vii7 is Dominant and is also 1/2 whole
diminished .
theory means ALL the possibilities, harmony is the blend you come up with
Cheers for watching John - nice insight! 🤓🎸
@SteveAllsworth the movable 6th intervals T 6:10, is a great riff!
@@johnmcminn9455 thank you! 🙏🏼
Thank you for useful lessons, could you please send the backing track
Thank you - check the link In the description 🎸
What a cool sound! what were you using?
I think it was the Strat into a King of Tone pedal into my Fender amp - delay was some analog unit on Logic - can't remember now!
@@SteveAllsworth thanks for replying! 🙏
These are great. Would love to get four clicks before each exercise so we can start together.
Nice idea! I'll take a look at this - thanks 🎸
How do you get that sweet clear overdrive sound
King of Tone pedal - amaaaaaazing (although the waiting list is over a year 😭😭😭)
I believe the pattern will work for the Amin. So what's the counterpart if its an Amaj?
A lot of options, but if you think of A Major being derived from A7, then the A H/W works really well.
@@SteveAllsworth I'll give it a try sir Steve. im gonna loop an Amaj and see if the box pattern works (considering it's a Maj not min).
@@SteveAllsworth Hello sir. the box pattern did not work on an A major. do you have any tips ?
A Half/Whole? (A Bb C C# Eb E F# G A) Make sure you're not using the Whole/Half as used in this video. Try shifting all the shapes from this vid up one semitone
I may be a rookie but how do you achieve that sound with a strat ?
I'd love to say it's all in the fingers 😅 but I'm playing through a King of Tone pedal - best overdrive I've ever owned!
