Good job Ivan. I know plenty of new members who will benifit from this kind of lesson

Hey!! Excellent job Ivan!!

Great lesson Ivan.

Great lesson, I was missing some sliding in my pentatonis....
Thanx!!

Awesome lesson! I was stuck in the pentatonic box as well...finally free!

Wow this is awesome, i love your technique!

very nice

This lesson rules, some awesome Marty Friedman licks in there too.

nice sliding ivan

Just cool - sounds great and great technique to learn!

Yeah, good lesson Ivan

Useful lesson Ivan!

Yeah great job Ivan , this is very usefull stuff !!

what type of guitar is that

Ivan -

Having great fun learning how to run down this scale. Going back up however, I just can't wrap my mind or fingers around it. Is there a way to slow down the video even more?

Cool slides Ivan,well done!!

Ivan -

Ok. I see now that GP is the way to go. Can slow it down or speed it up as fast as I need to. Thanks for the quick response.

Both me and my son (I'm 45, he is 16) are having a blast with all the lessons on GMC and yours is the first that I'm actually trying to "master".

Seriously..the GMC web site has provided a chance for me to bond with my son..we both check out the lick of the day, jam together with the backing tracks..totally cool.

Ivan,

Love the lesson! I'm struggling a bit with the parts that require the middle finger to play the same fret as the ring finger, but one string up. I've never used this technique in my improvs for some reason, but would like to incorporate it. Any tips on playing more cleanly with that kind of fingering?

That's always the answer, isn't it? Practice! I will, and thanks for those cool riffs!

Thanks Ivan, Im definitely going to learn this one!

Ivan -

Finally got this one down. Going to try your "Funky Riff" next.

Another great lesson Ivan. This give me an alternative to my assending / decending pentatonic scales in thirds.

Got the first run down now at a slower speed now for the 2nd. I'm quite suprised how reasonably quickly I've picked it up. It looked tough at first!

Thanks Ivan, this lessons great! Exactly what I was looking for.

hello ivan!!!!!!!!

excellent lesson!!!!!!

beutifull job!!!!!

thanks

That's extremely helpful. We didn't have legato lessons for the pentatonic scale yet.

Anyone have an idea why some lesson video's are not filling my Lesson Step Window? this is very difficult to see and going to full screen there are not enough pixels to make it legible. Someone have any ideas or feedback help for me? It seems to not be consistent and effects all the teachers I am using... THANKS FOR HELP Oh also I cannot move the Quality of my downloads from Medium to High the button does not slide....?????
