However, beginning in the mid-20th century luthiers seeking increased volume moved to a 26 inches (660 mm) scale ...
Scales are typically listed from low to high pitch. Most scales are octave-repeating, meaning their pattern of notes is the same in every octave (the Bohlen–Pierce scale is one exception). An octave-repeating scale can be represented as a circular arrangement of pitch classes, ordered by increasing (or decreasing) pitch class.
In contrast, in the chord-scale system, a different scale is used for each chord in the progression (for example mixolydian scales on A, E, and D for chords A 7, E 7, and D 7, respectively). [5] Improvisation approaches may be mixed, such as using "the blues approach" for a section of a progression and using the chord-scale system for the rest. [6]

The redesigned Musicmaster II alongside its stablemate the Duo-Sonic II lasted through 1969 before both models were dropped from production in favor of the ...
