i dont know alot about blues but if its anything like jazz then id rather play scales that require you using at least 3 fingers to shred the scale.

Harmonic minor...
I'm pretty sure you could classify some of the aforementioned "Nile scale" as harmonic minor...

I mainly use the Harmonic Minor, Augmented, and diminished scales. Along with some modes.
Diminished Apreggios are pretty cool too.

i dont understand how that page works, so you have to stretch all the way from the 3rd to 8th fret?

diminished scale is cool, so is the F major scale
