Memorizing the pentatonic scale, and learning how to use it in a fluid and musical manor are
two completely different skills. Most courses focus just on teaching you the positions and then
leave you to your own devices. Not this one! The focus is all about how to use the scale
across the entire fretboard in a musical and practical way. Truly understanding the pentatonic
scale will open up unlimited musical possibilities.
Week 1 Starts on May 2nd, 2016 at 8pm Eastern.
In this first session we will explore different licks that are particularly
useful with the first position. We will focus on bends using the index,
middle and ring fingers. The included backing track will be used
throughout the lesson to illustrate the examples.
In this session we will develop ideas using the 4th position which has
its root on the 5th string. A variety of different practical licks will be
learned giving students some useful ideas to put into practice what
we learn.
In this section we will learn the 3rd position which will tie all the
previously learned positions together. We will learn a few useful licks
using that 3rd position and put it into application over the provided
backing track.
Now that students are comfortable with all five positions, we will
explore different sequences that will add excitement and musicality to
their playing. We will discuss the importance of playing with a
metronome and a backing track.
