Scale suggestions:


E minor pentatonic scale - E G A B D

E minor blues scale - E G A Bb B D

E minor scale - E F# G A B C D

E harmonic minor scale - E F# G A B C D#


You can treat the B7 as an altered chord and use the altered scale:

B altered scale - B C D D# F G A

The altered scale is the mode which starts on the 7th step of the melodic minor scale, so in other words - the notes of B altered scale are the same as those of C melodic minor scale :)


The basic arpeggios will come in useful:


Em - E G B

Am - A C E

Cmaj7 - C E G B

B7 - B D# F# A
