Great ideas. T/y for posting.

Are you playing G7#5 or G9#5? The Ab is a b9 against G so it should cause you no issues any more than your example playing B7#5 using C MM, unless you are voicing a natural 9th in the chord.

If you want all of the altered sounds, Ab is the way to go. If you are simply playing G7#5 then C MM should be a shoe in. Either way they both work.

Also give this a whirl. When playing G7 throw FMM over it. Great b9 sound. The b3 also is a great sound when playing blues.

Please forgive my indulgence, but I'm getting the MM scale down, and I've got a new version of Band in a Box that I've put on my new Mac, and I want to use some of your ideas to lay down some rhythm backing tracks to practice the MM scale. Getting the thread back to the top makes it easier to find.

Carry on, and thanks.

Thanks for doing so! A real interesting read, haha.
