Find whatever scale you need, wherever you need it! Do you always start your solos in the same pentatonic shape? Far too many of us guitar players do this.
It's time to master the fretboard, finally. It would be nice to know wherever we happen to be on the fretboard at that moment, what the scale is without having to shift to Shape 1 Easy Shape all the time. And remember we can choose either just one scale for a song, or many scales for a song. But to do that, we’ll need to be able to find scales quickly and easily. All my students here are taught a simple three-step method. By thinking of each pentatonic shape as being either a "first finger" start or a "third finger" start we can find and switch scales really fast.

That is an extremely refreshing way to look at the minor pentatonic scales. 👍👍

Blue, another incredibly useful micro lesson - simple, accessible, repeatable, moveable. Loving the 'labels' - 1st finger, 3rd finger, easy shape, symmetrical, funny B, stack. 🥳

Thanks again! Glad to hear it!

I really like the simple animations added for finger position. Simple and effective! Thanks!

@GuitarLessonsVancouver 19 дней назад

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind and use that in more videos.

What he is describing here is actually a tried and true memorizing tool; Association. Quite brilliant really, as I've not seen any other guitar lessons that use it. By giving the shapes a unique name, "Easy shape, Triple Stack etc." he's providing something to identify them with other than just a bunch of shapes that don't mean anything.

Another great video Blue. I'm definitely at that stage of trying to find the relevant shape wherever I am, and didn't make the connection between the related shapes and the A string root before, so this was a lightbulb moment. 😎 Keep up the great work.

Great to hear other ways to think on scales and positions. I tend to think of 6th, 5th, and 4th string positions and from each a up and a down the neck. Ends in the same place. Fun to see what sticks for people.

@GuitarLessonsVancouver 5 месяцев назад

Good point, whatever helps us to remember and use it all. It's not the same things for everyone.

I would say something ridiculous like “you don’t know how helpful these lessons are” but that would be particularly ridiculous.

Another great lesson! Why always starting on Easy Shape?!? Why I didn’t find it out myself? I tried it and all of the sudden all 5 penta shapes where under my fingers. I was fixed far too much on the penta extended only. THANK YOU BLU! Your lessons are always direct to the point 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

@GuitarLessonsVancouver 5 месяцев назад

Awesome well done!!

@JackB.Nimble999 3 месяца назад

I like the name triple-stack for shape 3 :). Question - for the major pentatonic, it seems like you just have change the shapes corresponding to the first and 3rd fingers?. So there is a different set of shapes for minor and major, right?

@GuitarLessonsVancouver 3 месяца назад

Thanks! The name "Triple Stack" I didn't invent, that honor goes to one of my star students. But to answer your question, the shapes for Major Pentatonic are exactly the same as for Minor Pentatonic. They just start on a different "root." This video explains that in more detail: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2vXMecfmhdc.html

@JackB.Nimble999 3 месяца назад

@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Ah right. That's actually what I meant but looking back the question was was pretty confusing.

I don't understand none of this. I just play over and over until something sounds right. It's not very practical I know but I'm the only one listening. 🤔
