B Mixolydian — Bass VI

The B Mixolydian scale runs 7 notes per octave in the modes family. Below it sits on the Bass VI's EADGBE strings with every root marked, because a bassist reads a scale map as a set of targets around the root, not a row of dots.

Major with a flatted 7th (b7) — bright and bluesy. The dominant chord turned into a tonal center with a rock/folk edge.

Heard in: "Sweet Home Chicago", "Norwegian Wood" (Beatles), Celtic and folk music — anywhere a major sound needs a darker, looser edge.

Because the Bass VI carries guitar tuning an octave down, these patterns are guitar geometry with bass consequences — watch the G-to-B string crossing, where the shape bends by one fret.

Walk it slowly against the audio, land each root on a downbeat, then take it to the progressions in B and let the scale turn into lines.
