3 Pentatonic Exercises You Never Played - And you are missing out! :)

[JensL]

Happy New Year Geartarists!

I am quite sure you decided to spend more time practicing in 2017, so here are some new ways to work through the Pentatonic scale.

It is incredible how wide the range of sounds you can pull from a minor pentatonic scale is! This video is on 3 exercises and some licks showing how to make some great modern sounds with a simple A minor pentatonic scale.

That guitar sounds so good. I recorded someone who brought one in...

I'm a lefty so I get no love.


Amp? Nice lines as well.

Thanks again for a great lesson, Jens. Being a wide-interval player, and, let's face it, a pentatonic-loving guitarist, I'm always looking for more sophisticated phrasing ideas. Looking forward to more good stuff from you in the new year!

Being a wide-interval player

I recall Larry talk about using his triad approach as a means to utilise wider intervals in his playing.

You're welcome! I guess most guitar players like the petatonic scale?

Thanks! It is indeed a great guitar!

My amp is a Fractal Audio AX8 through a QSC K10 (with a Jay Mitchell IR)

Yep. He's where I got the idea. I figured that by combining the triads, pents, and chromatics I've got all the bases covered and increased my odds of nailing those "money notes."
