Scale Maps — Cello

Pick a root: each of the 24 types arrives placed by finger, string, and position.

The Cello scale reference: choose a root and one of 24 types, and every degree arrives named by string, finger, and hand position along CGDA.

Because the strings climb in fifths, one hand position covers a wide span of the fingerboard — four fingers, a fifth of range per string, and the same finger pattern repeating across every neighbouring pair. Learning a scale here is mostly learning WHICH position it wants and where the shifts fall.
