In this solo I use the major and minor pentatonic to obtain a solo in the style of rock/blues. The idea of this work is getting a good control of both pentatonic scales at every moment.

Playing a minor pentatonic over a dominant 7 chord is a great way to add a bluesy feel to an improvisation. The tension heard when playing a minor third over the major third of the track is what makes blues so interesting.

An intermediate lesson on combining scales when soloing, it combines basic pentatonic licks, some bends, and some fast runs with alternate picking.

Today's lesson will help you memorize the 5 positions of the pentatonic scale. This scale has a relative minor pentatoinic scale, which means that both of these scales share the same notes and positions.What makes one sound major or minor depends on the chords in the background.

Major pentatonics are a great way to start expanding your leads. This lesson should put you on the right track to Major leads in no time!

We will be switching between F# minor and F# major scale, using different techniques and phrasings at advanced level.

Learn transition between Am and A major scale, fingerings and positions, all at beginners level.

We will be switching between F# minor and F# major scale, using different techniques and phrasings at intermediate level.

Fifth and last lesson in the series, where we will cover positions 5 of the minor and major pentatonic scales. Mixing of these two patterns is very important in blues and other forms of music as well, and it will create a more interesting vibe in your playing when alternating these two patterns/feels.
