F♯ Double Harmonic Major

F♯ · G · A♯ · B · C♯ · D · E♯
Often called the gypsy or Byzantine scale, F♯ Double Harmonic Major has a flat second, major third, flat sixth, and major seventh, producing two augmented seconds — one at each end. That symmetry gives it an intensely ornate, Middle Eastern character. Widely used in Balkan, Arabic, and Jewish music, and popular with metal guitarists.
