Tags : Pentatonic scale, jazz licks, major 7th chord

Hello GMC! In this lesson I'll show you some jazzy licks using only the minor/major pentatonic scale. We'll see licks using four different scales over a single C7M chord.

Even if you're not too much into jazz music, you can try to follow this lesson to understand when a lick sounds good and when not.

Pentatonic scales are the first ones to learn for beginners, most of the times. So, you shouldn't have problems to understand the theory behind this lesson.

Check video #2 to get more information, as usual.

Then, you can try to create your own licks. You can notice quickly that it's not easy as it seems!
Feel free to ask me if you need some help.

Enjoy!
