B Chromatic

B · C · C♯ · D · D♯ · E · F · F♯ · G · G♯ · A · A♯

All twelve notes, each a semitone apart — B Chromatic isn't a key so much as the complete set of available pitches. Nobody improvises in it directly; its value is as a source of passing notes and chromatic approach tones that connect the notes of whatever scale you're actually playing. Used sparingly, it's what makes lines sound fluid.

The chromatic scale encourages exploration across the fretboard, great for adding chromatic passages in between phrases for a more sophisticated sound.
