Major Scale Formula Explained

The major scale formula uses whole steps (W) and half steps (H) to define the pattern of intervals between notes, with W representing two frets on a guitar and H one fret. The C major scale follows the WWHWWWH pattern starting on C and ascending by fret number to the next C an octave higher, while the G major scale follows the same pattern starting on G.
