Hello GrindGuer!

We are starting with your MTP for June in this thread. From now on, you will post all your work in this thread. Recorded videos should be posted on Youtube and embedded here. Now onto your 1st assignment which is related to fretboard knowledge, improvisation, theory and harmony!

1st assignment :
Superimposing with minor pentatonics + improvising


- Read Superimposing with Minor Pentatonics post HERE
- After reading the whole thing with related link posts, think about choosing one chord and one approach you will use for recording!
- After you have chosen your approach, record a backing track with that chord and on top of that record yourself soloing with 1 or all 3 minor pentatonics corresponding with that mode!
- Post your work in this thread.

Let me give you an example here. Lets say that you have chosen A minor as your chord. Now you also chose A minor to be treated as II (Dorian sounding). In that case you should play minor pentatonics from G major scale ( A , B and E minor pentatonics) over A min chord in the background. 4th assignment asks you only to pick 1 but it also allows you to use all 3 pentatonics if you want to.
Backing track doesn't have to be anything fancy for this purpose. Just guitar playing the chord will do, if you want to add bass and drums to that to make it sound tighter go ahead!

Deadline for this assignment is 9th of June!

Good luck with it and feel free to ask me any questions in this thread.
