 How to use the pentatonic shapes?

Are you stuck with only one of the pentatonic shapes?

Did you know that are actually five different shapes for this scale? In this video I will teach you all the five shapes and how I personally like to use each single one of them.

How to Use the Major Pentatonic? This is one of the questions I had early on, when I first started to learn how to solo. Maybe this is a question you’re having right now.

When I first started to solo I made a mistake that most rookies do: I applied the minor pentatonic over the root of any song, even if the song was in a major key! TRAGIC!!

It wasn't until a rehearsal for an event at my high school, when a friend of mine gave me this tip that saved me that night. The tip he gave influenced my playing to this day. Not only me, but all of my thousands of students. Now it's your turn!

How to solo over the chord changes? This is one of the questions I had early on when I first started to learn how to solo and I felt stuck. I could solo over major and minor, no problem, but I knew there was more than just that.

Solo over chord changes - I had to learn how to do that. I tried to learn jazz… fusion and whatever I found complex and sophisticated. The more chords the better. The more scales I memorized the better.

I went deeper into the study of harmony and music theory and I was able to understand it all… but I could not solo over chord changes yet… I had the head knowledge… but it turned out that I wasn't able to translate that head knowledge translate into what I deeply wanted to: play freely over the chord changes.

So I decided to go back to the basics: Blues. Is there anything more foundational to the electric guitar than BLUES? And this is what I am going to teach in this video: How to solo over chord changes on Blues.

How to solo over the major key? What is the most effective way to sound good very quickly? Do you need to memorize a whole new scale?

In this video I will show you what is my favourite scale to solo over the major key and how to, with just a few adjustments, you can have some amazing results.

How to solo over the minor key? What is the most effective way to sound good very quickly?

How to solo on guitar in any given key? Can you solo in any given key? What about if it is a minor key? Or major? What about the genre?

It seems almost impossible to know all the scales, right? Major, minor, sharps and flats? It is a lot to memorize, isn’t it? 

How to do that? How can you know all the scales that we have in our guitar? This is what I love about guitar. Guitar is an instrument that is based in shapes rather than notes. That fact makes our lives as guitarist much more simple!

Well, in this lesson you will learn a very simple and practical way for you to be able to do exactly that: solo in any key, major, or minor, any genre! You will learn how to use one single shape that will work for everything: Any given key, major or minor!
