Omg this is the best guitar video on the internet. There’s someone on the internet who did this for piano with the pentatonic grip and I was like “where is someone doing this for guitar?”
Very worthwhile to go through this slowly, stop the video and look at what is happening to see how the different modes are created by adding a pentatonic to an existing chord. GREAT STUFF!
Been playing for about 30 years and have learned all these things in and out over that time, and this is one of the best most well articulated and demo’d refreshers of it I’ve ever seen. Awesome, thanks
Great lesson, thank you ! Gives pentatonic scales a whole new life. I heard the Stairway to Heaven solo riffs right about here 14:01 and 21:33 They fit very well.
I really appreciate your theory, maybe the most clear on the tube. The problem as a beginner that i encounter is what notes to play with one pentatonic on several chords in a progression
I think learning where every note on the neck is located would simply every scale and every chord/ chord progression. Maybe a video on this would solve many headaches people have. Keep up the good work. Garreth
Best lesson ever about superimposition and best channel as well. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your gold nuggets! Greetings from Italy. Sincerely, Fabio!
Absolutely fantastic lesson. I have been drawing charts , writing down scale degrees and staring at the neck for literally years trying to understand this exact concept. Thank you!!!
I've spent the better part of the past year learning to "jazz up" my solos without using chords that aren't typically used in rock and blues music. Every learning source I've tried basically suggests adding chromatic notes to the existing scales we typically use in these genres without outlining any specific rules or techniques. So basically they're saying "just use your ear". It quickly became apparent that that method was going to take a very long time and an extreme amount of transcribing. I'm not averse to transcribing as it helps develop my ear but I don't really like memorizing other musicians licks. I much rather prefer to understand the theory behind them so I can create my own. This video is the best video I've found about superimposing scales over chords. After watching it, I was immediately able to improvise some outside licks over my favorite jam tracks. Thank you so much. God I wish I'd learned this a long time ago.
Before seeing this, I literally didn't even know this was possible. This was a great application of theory that I never could even conceptualize. I've never seen another lesson like this. Excellent effort on the diagrams and also interesting backing tracks and licks.
I am really grateful for this video that not only explain but with application examples of minor pentatonic. I really surprises me that one can even get the modal sounds by applying different degree of the minor pentatonic. Truly a gem. I will keep coming back to this same video to fully digest the content. I have been looking for something like this that shows a way on how to bring up the mode in one's solo. Thank you so much for making this video!
I never write comments on RUclips but this video is extraordinary. There are tons of videos on the uses of the pentatonic scale but this is by far the best and probably the best guitar video I've ever seen. Congratulations and thank you very much for creating such high quality content!
One of the best guitar lessons I have ever watched. Suddenly everything clicked. You are an excellent teacher! (And yes, I just got my e-book to study at my own pace. This is quality material.)
i have to say, honestly, since i discovered your channel i am absolutely loving your content, i like this 'no fluff' approach. i think i've learned more in a couple of months than i have in the last 17 years combined! your examples are amazingly precise, and your voice is also strangely soothing :D
This is just what I needed. Understanding the system with all its relations. Not just showing one random "super cool idea". Thank you for teaching with concept. Now I am not just able to work towards creating what I want, also I understand the music I am listening to a bit more.
Rob, I've learned so much from this one lesson. I have been wanting to improvise more in jazz and swing and this really took me to another level in my playing.
I have learned more to help my improvisation from your videos than any other channel out there. Your approach really resonates with my way of thinking which has always been to know my major and pentatonic scales cold then apply slight changes to those scales to achieve modes, arpeggios and such. Thanks.
studying Bergonzi's book on the topic for a few months, detailing my reading skills, this video's value cannot be overstated-thank you, getting through your catalog
Rob, that was a fantastic lesson, thanks very much! Along with this and your modes lessons you've given me plenty to practice on piano! I took a screenshot at the end where you give a summary so I remember what to practice :)
A wealth of content and one to bookmark as I’ll need to review some of the theory and concepts just to get it straight in my head. Wish this video was around 30 years ago when I first made my attempts into improvisation
Very beautiful solos, not the pentatonic shredding like many other tutors. Can you tell something about how to reach such a freedom inside a pentatonic scale?
Wow. This opens so many new possibilities without having to learn new scales. Amazing! Most useful tutorial in months. Very clear and well structured tutorial. Definitely going to watch more of your stuff. Bedankt!

Your channel is SEVERELY underrated, I've learned a lot from your videos the past couple of hours.
I agree
I agree as well. Your channel is amazing as well as your way of creating melodic lines.
Rob..this should be required watching for anyone starting out trying to learn to improvise. This indeed was crystal clear!!!
Thanks man!!
This helps me think without overthinking! Great lesson! Now I need to work on the flow.
Thanks!
No one comes close to you when it comes to your teaching. What an eye opener every lesson is.
Thank you Ray
Best examples. Thank you so much!! 😀👍
Superinteresting video!! Thank you!
Rare gem of a lesson
best teacher on youtube, thanks for this!
Excellent tutorial. Thank you.
That's the simplest way i think I've ever heard of showing what modes are in practice 👍👍👍
Very clear explained with good examples! Great lesson!
Your content is pure gold man. Thanks a hundred times.
Very comprehensive!
Best Lessons.
I was looking for this kind of lesson for about 10 years. Thank you.
Omg this is the best guitar video on the internet. There’s someone on the internet who did this for piano with the pentatonic grip and I was like “where is someone doing this for guitar?”
Hi Tom. Thanks man!
This Lesson is EXCELLENT!!!! Thank you!
One of the most excelent class I’ve ever seen with a wonderful didatic. Thanks a lot. Really enjoyed.
Thanks Rocky!

This Man is a master at teaching the right way! Love ur channel!
Thanks!!
Been playing for about 30 years and have learned all these things in and out over that time, and this is one of the best most well articulated and demo’d refreshers of it I’ve ever seen. Awesome, thanks
Definitely opened some doors here! Thanks!
this is possibly the greatest video in the history of RUclips, and even Western music itself. great job!!!
Thanks for you nice comment!
Fantastic lesson sir, you explained a complex part of musical theory in a very simple way. Thank you for your work!
Exceptional. No waffle, and as stated, crystal clear. The best superimposing of pentatonics video Ive seen, including some 'bought' videos.
Thanks Tom!
Great lesson, thank you ! Gives pentatonic scales a whole new life. I heard the Stairway to Heaven solo riffs right about here 14:01 and 21:33 They fit very well.
Excellent....struggled with modes but can understand this
Awesome method for playing modes. This is excellent
I really appreciate your theory, maybe the most clear on the tube. The problem as a beginner that i encounter is what notes to play with one pentatonic on several chords in a progression
thank you, this improved my shound
Rob this video is a game changer! Why dont other people share this! Now I really sound like I know what I'm doing!
Thankyou so much Rob!!!
You're welcome!
I think learning where every note on the neck is located would simply every scale and every chord/ chord progression.
Maybe a video on this would solve many headaches people have.
Keep up the good work.

Definitely some stuff I need to learn, and I have been playing for over 20 years but self taught. Grateful you made this.
Absolutely fantastic lesson. I have been drawing charts , writing down scale degrees and staring at the neck for literally years trying to understand this exact concept. Thank you!!!
These are some GREAT combinations. Thanks!
Brilliant, thank you.
You are a gifted teacher, and this was an amazing masterclass..thanks so much for sharing this!

Great lesson. Well organised and presented clearly. I learnt a lot.
Best channel! Thank you for the lesson Sir.

This video is BY FAR the best tutorial/explanation I have seen on this topic. CONGRATS!!
Thank you Claudio :)
This is Excellent !
Thank you very much. I've been struggling for years trying to learn this, and you made it so clear. Awesome work.
I'm shocked to see that you have only 25k subs. with this quality of videos you deserve 2 million. Keep going man !
Rob, that was a fantastic lesson, thanks very much! Along with this and your modes lessons you've given me plenty to practice on piano! I took a screenshot at the end where you give a summary so I remember what to practice :)
Very understandable you're one of the most educational on the net...thanks from Australia
Thanks. Cristal clear!👍
This is Gold.
Very good lesson, thanks.
Very well presented and useful stuff. Your playing and sound are excellent as well. Thanks so much for your help in lifting the fog.
Rule 2 for the minor scale is awesome. I guess it's because the min11 sounds so nice.
Wow this is a very good leson. Fisrt to watch sir
It's very clear. and easy to use.
Thank you for your shared.
Fantastic tutorial! Thank you!
This is great! I love using pentatonics for improvising and I just finished a method that involves pairs of pentatonics.
Fantastic lesson. Exceptional quality. Thank you!!!
Thanks Francois!

Can you tell something about how to reach such a freedom inside a pentatonic scale?
Ive been curious about superimposing for a long time. Thank you.
