But modern debate is unethical.
Whoooooa now a second ago we were talking about using a C major scale over everything. Don't go getting all hip on me.
b5 all day baby, that’s jazz. Read George Benson’s book. He said something about flatting every 5 he came across to sound hip. (it didn’t work out).
Hello! Great practical question, thanks. Based on your start, and the practical advice already offered here regarding tunes, you’re on your way. I’d add the obvious, which is to listen. A lot....

Some might say the same of the guy playing Lydian for four measures over a swing tune. I kid I kid I kid. But for real, the practical difference is “do you play B or Bb” and most soloists on...
Superb quality guitars. I have a hollow Les-Paul shaped one and it's in regular rotation.
