I refer to the Mixo-Blues/Super Blues Scale as the Super-Imposed Pentatonic scale. There really is no REAL name for the scale, except the ones we tag it with.
The reason I call it the Super-Imposed scale is that you take two simple and common scales, the Blues scale (includes the Minor Pentatonic scale) and the Major Pentatonic scale and you super-impose them to create two scales that act as one...really it's two SOUNDS that act TOGETHER as ONE.
You can come to a HUGE revelation if you make up a blank fretboard diagram/grid, pencil in a 1st position G Blues scale, now pencil in a 1st position G Major Pentatonic DIRECTLY on top of the G Blues scale...super-imposing the scales.
You should see all these chromatic passages now! But don't think of them a "one note after the other" but use the sound of each scale in conjunction with the other. You end up with a two sound over one chord.
Plus you can move that big scale along to the Root of each chord in a Blues progression.
But, learning to deal with the two sounds is what's going to determine how good it sounds. So, don't just run up and down those chromatic passage but use them to "connect" the two sounds.
If you look closer into the Super-Imposed Scale you'll find a number of things...The Blues, Minor Pent, Major Pent, Mixolydian, Dorian, and more!!!!
I have a 50+ example tutorial at my lesson site:
http://lessons.mikedodge.com ...you get audio, tabs, diagrams, explanation, and more.
It's the Advanced Pentatonics Tutorial link at my site. MAKE SURE you read the Introduction as it will explain a WHOLE lot more on the subject, and then the examples will keep expanding the idea...I'll even show you how to use the missing notes to use a full 12-tone scale!!!!
I'll show how it can be used to pretty much any style of music, since it uses all 12 notes.
Enjoy.
