Guitar Scale Logic started as a tool Marty Banner wanted for himself first. After years of working in guitar-related businesses and spending a lot of time with alternate tunings, he wanted one central place to explore scales across all keys and a wider range of tunings without relying on scattered diagrams or generic charts.

Why Guitar Scale Logic Exists
Marty Banner created Guitar Scale Logic to solve a personal problem first: having one place to reference scales in every key, and especially across alternate tunings, without bouncing between incomplete resources.
The public version of the site keeps that same goal. It is designed for anyone who wants a better understanding of scales and a faster way to see how those notes lay out on the guitar neck.
What Makes It Different
A lot of guitar scale sites either stay locked to standard tuning, show only a small subset of scales, or rely on thin static diagrams. Guitar Scale Logic is built around interactive fretboard views, static tablature, chord suggestions and scale coverage across a much wider tuning set.
The note positions and tab patterns are generated from interval formulas and string tuning data, which helps keep the core scale logic consistent from page to page. If you spot an issue, use the contact page so it can be reviewed.
