A couple cool minor scale patterns in G

These patterns are good to use in practicing finger slides.

For the strings with 4 notes, try sliding your index finger from the first note to the second, then using your other fingers. Do the opposite on the way down.

Then try playing the first three notes regular and then slide your pinky to the forth note.
G dorian
E--------------------8-----10-----12---13-----15-----------------
B--------------------8-----10---11--------------------------------
G----------5-----7-----9---10---------------------------------
D----------5-----7---8--------------------------------------------
A----3-----5-----7---8--------------------------------------------
E----3-----5---6-------------------------------------------------

G dorian - same notes, different places
E--------------------------10-----12---13-----15-------
B--------------------8-----10---11-----13--------------
G----------------7-----9---10--------------------------
D----------5-----7---8-----10--------------------------
A----------5-----7---8----------------------------------
E----3-----5---6-----8----------------------------------


Here's a chromatic excersize just for ha ha's. Sometimes when I get a little too fixated on major/minor sounds, I'll play this excesize repeatedly to sort of "cleanse the palette."
E---------4----5----6----7----8----------------------
B--------------5----6----7----8---------------------
G--------------5----6----7----8--------------------
D-------------------6----7----8----9----------------
A------------------------7----8----9----10-----------
E-----------------------------8----9----10----11-------
