Mike,
You provided this.

A pattern I see used in music quite a bit (typically in small chunks) is like this in G:
G A G A B A B C B C D C D E D E F# E F# G
If that doesn’t make sense for someone, give a yell and I or someone else can write it out in tab or standard notation

Is this about right.

Thanx

Hey Jim,
I saw your PM and went and wrote the pattern out in TablEdit before I came here. You already had it (and it looks like what I was describing). I had also added another octave and did a similar pattern back down. I am not sure how helpful it will be for y’all, but here it is. I called it an indecisive scale because it sounds like it can’t make up it’s mind.

It’s surprisingly fun to come up with little patterns. Let’s see what people come up with…
I would love to see other and other’s ideas Mike. What I have thought of as sequences tend to be “regimented” and maybe good to drill a scale, it is the pieces with something else that make the music and a break that sounds good. Your’s is an example that has variation in the pattern.
I added another pattern to the same TEF file. This one seems more regular as it is a 4 note pattern along the scale instead of 3 (like the first one).

Ben has a lesson on that . I use it to get my fingers working . It seems you tend to go faster on the way back down sort of like a runaway train LOL/ In my case it sounds like a train wreck.
