Ready to learn how to rock with the minor pentatonic scale? Glenn Riley has his new Pentatonic Rock course up on Just 2 Play Guitar! You may have learned this scale and even use it in your blues but how well do you know it? Can you apply it in a more Rock context?
The pentatonic scale is one that is a first for many budding guitar soloists. It fits well under your hands, it is commonly used by popular guitarists and just sounds great…when used right. I replaced a guitarist in my church worship team and expected the leader to want something like the previous guitarist. What I had heard before was mostly bluesy, pentatonic riffs and that is what I started doing. Fine but in the right context – Doh!
There’s Pentatonic and Then There’s Minor Pentatonic
If I was to ask you to play the minor pentatonic right now, could you do it? How about the other way around? Maybe you already play minor but the major scale version eludes you. That’s good because they are closely related. Not just in notes but in fingerings. This course will show you three ways to play the scale and apply them with backing tracks. Learn how to link your riffs together to create your own.
Music Theory? Blecchhh…!
So, scales make your head swim. While a little music theory is a good thing, this course is more for the practical musician. Get in and watch Glenn demonstrate the basics up close on his fretboard. As he weaves in a bit of theory, such as fifths and thirds, it is not heavy but don’t miss it! Build on everything you learn. It makes the process that much more valuable.
