G Melodic Minor Scale notes: G A Bb C D E F#. Formula: 1 2 b3 4 5 6 7. Chords in this scale: Gm, Am, Bbaug, C, D, Edim, F#dim.
Melodic minor (the jazz version, same going up and down) is a major scale with a flat third: 1 2 b3 4 5 6 7. It sounds smooth, modern and a little mysterious. Jazz players use it over minor chords with a major seventh, and its modes give two essential jazz sounds: Lydian dominant and the altered scale.
