had to make a myspace, printscreen and upload. there has to be a better solution. till then..
please, if you have something negative to say about this, don't. I'm just trying to help other guitarplayers.

I made this especially for Rkeisher, but please, if useful, add all the stuff you want.

Hey man, that is cool. I am going to transfer it to a word document and give it to my daughter. Thank you very much.

yep, those are the chords "owned" by the Am scale. If you take the 1st position (you mentioned it as the 5th position in your pic) of whatever scale you like, and you start with the groundnote, and you go 3steps on and on, you always get the chords that belong to the scale. And they're always in the same order of minor or majeur too.
compare your scale to my am scale with the notes and then get the chords next on them, you'll find out I'm right.

this knowledge comes in handy sometimes. especially with improvising, cos you know what chords will be safe to play.

i made the chart in corel draw. in the original file, the red dots and the boxes are in one group, the neck and fret numbers are in another group. this allows you to grab all the red dots and boxes and slide it up and down the neck to get the pattern boxes for other keys. pretty handy for beginners. i've been playing rhythm for 30 something years and just started trying to learn a little lead. i need all the tools i can get.
i also made a doc file for major and minor scales, and how pentatonics work. that file has a template i can use to find out the notes of any major and minor scale... couldn't post it here because none of the text would line up properly. if i did a "print screen", you couldn't use the template. sure would like to make these things available to anybody who wants them.
i suppose i could e-mail any or all of the files on a "per request" basis.
