The Ionian Scale Lesson

In this section of Lead:Step One, Jon introduces position scales built off of each chord tone in the major scale. This clip teaches the Ionian Mode.

But don't let the idea of modes scare you off. Jon keeps it simple and uses the modes as a tool of scale shape identification versus some big, hairy music theory thing.
