185. THE 7-NOTES 1ST HARMONIC SCALE OF 3 OCTAVES AND THE CORRESPONDING TUNING F STRING INSTRUMENTS



This 7-notes scale is of course the


F1-C2-G2-D2-A2-E2-B3-F4

and its span is 3 octaves when closing back to F.

The violin, mandolin , mandola, octave mandolin, tambouras, Iris bouzouki, mandocello etc are tuning in segments of this scale.

This tuning allows rather symmetric  representation also ofthe melodic-harmonic 7-notes 2-octaves scale (of chords) as in post 79.
