Intro to Major Pentatonic Soloing - 9 major pentatonic licks and a practice solo 

Wanting to move forward from minor pentatonic soloing, and your video is just perfect, thanks a bunch

I've learned more from this video than a host of others on RU-vid. Thank you

Really good Ryan very good tutorial

Just finding this and it’s awesome! I was converting my E-B-A-E to relative minors (6th) of each (C#m - G#m - F#m - C#m) then using that to play minor pentatonic. Turns out it’s just called the major scale….. now I see why I keep resolving on a different note than the minor. I’ve been resolving on the tonic. This lesson is phenomenal bringing all the licks into it and explaining the why behind it all

This is exactly what I need. Thank you.

Hey Ryan, great stuff and great to see/hear you again! I'm still watching your old Ratt stuff - so cool. Keep it up bro, you are an EXCELLENT teacher and player. Rock on.

This video is in my Top 3- Don't suck at guitar anymore videos! Just what I needed!

Killer guitar tone!

Informative, good simple explanation and you kept my attention. Thank you! Keep them coming....

This has some really good info that most (almost all) pentatonic lessons omit. Awesome lesson.

Hey man, love this vid. Would love a lesson on your intro music - such a sweet sound!

Maybe a little too late, but great lesson, Ryan, thanks so much! As you said, I´m used to play on minor scales mostly, but I need to learn a bit about major riffs and soloing on major for playing at the church,and this is just perfect. Greetings from Venezuela. Struggling times here, but praising the Lord helps to keep peace of mind, heart and soul. Thanks again!

thanks for bringing me back to my roots ..! I went all mixolydian for a long time

Great lessons Ryan, love your playin style, really enjoying you lessons and instruction breakdowns, keep em coming mate! How about a couple more Marty Friedman lessons? from the early Megadeth catalogue? ☺

My gosh thank you so much for this lesson. I have trouble finding good intermediate stuff to learn and this was super fun to play. Feel like I learned quite a bit too. Will definitely check out more of your vids.

Terrific explanation and inspiration. Thx

That was a great lesson I learned quite a lot from that. In some of those runs and licks I could easily hear a lot of Joe Walsh. Cheers

Thanks for the video ! Where would you suggest to find more Major licks ?

Excellent lesson

Good stuff Ryan! Can't find any backing track though? Only a short piece of staff notation on your website.

Nice input..

That lick up there in 10th position uses the 4th, I wish you had commented on that.

Excellent lesson. Many thanks!

Great lesson and a great teaching style. Many thanks. :)

Nice guitar man! Thanks for this lesson! Works!

i like those sounds, it sound so sweet. i found my new teacher haha thanks for vids.

RYAN KIHN >>>>>>>>>>> )) which guitar rock solos used the Major Pentatonic licks scale can you make a lesson showing a bunch of examples?

Keep em coming this is great.

Are these positions numbered differently in the UK.? I've seen where the pattern you call shape two is called shape 5 in some literature from the UK.

Great work.

Can you put them into pdf format? ASIICS and .gp5 do not work for me...

Do the bends on lick 1 need to be muted before coming down. Really struggling to not have a pause in playing.

Great job

Thanks much....good stuff. I'm a drummer and I can play this. I'm starting to sound like a guitarist...OMG......thanks again.....:)

cool lesson

Rayan..we Enedina the Tabs…..gracias…

Good stuff. But why do so many guitar RU-vidrs seem incapable of saying “pentatonic” without then playing a bunch of pentatonic licks that not only don’t apply to the lesson, but are played too fast for folks to learn anything?

Just have a question if someone can help me. I'm early intermediate so this may sound stupid to some Pros. Normally when I play G major I play starting at 5th fret and I play the scale that would be the third position in a minor. Problem is on this video where he starts in position one on the 2nd fret doesn't tie in. If someone could explain that to me I would appreciate it.

How does playing a major scale sound over a minor rhythm? Because playing minor over major sounds good, is the reverse true?

Great!

So if a song goes in A major, it is basically the same thing if I play the minor pentatonic in F sharp. The notes are the same. Am I right? So basically what's the difference between minor and major pentatonic scales?

Any relation to Greg Kihn?

Having the humbucker covered like on Gibson guitars really fattens up the sound.

Very nice lesson,looking forward to more

Rock Kihn Roll, Kihntagious, Kihnspiracy, Kihntinued. Next of Kihn

sweet

Euán please…pu it the Tabs…
