improv Oct 09, 2023

Have you ever felt stuck in a rut with your pentatonic shapes? Like you're always playing the same patterns over and over again? Well, you're not alone. But there's good news: there's a way to break free from this monotony and master all the pentatonic shapes.

The secret is to practice. But not just any kind of practice. You need to practice in a way that is fun and engaging. That's why I've created this video for you.

In this video, we're going to learn all the pentatonic shapes together, one by one. But we're not just going to play dry exercises. We're going to make it fun by playing along with backing tracks and exploring different ways to phrase using each shape.

So grab your guitar and let's get started!

Here are some tips to make your pentatonic practice more interesting:

  • Play along with backing tracks in different styles, such as blues, rock, and country. This will help you to learn how to apply the pentatonic scale to different genres of music.
  • Experiment with different ways to phrase your solos. Try playing different rhythms, articulations, and dynamics.
  • Use the pentatonic scale to create your own melodies. Don't be afraid to experiment and see what sounds good to you.
  • Practice with other musicians. This is a great way to learn new ideas and get feedback on your playing.

I hope this video helps you to master the pentatonic shapes and take your playing to the next level!
