Today's guitar lesson is a simple way to make those major pentatonic licks sound Nasty! It's actually pretty easy and with three surprisingly simple concepts you will be dishing out some seriously tough-sounding major pentatonic licks in no time.
Topics covered
1. Modifying the major pentatonic scale
2. Adding chord tones from the progression inside your pentatonic scales (which also helps you use the modes in your phrasing) making sure you hit all of the right notes!
3. Learning how to throw a little minor pentatonic love inside those major pentatonic shapes for some seriously aggressive lick ideas!
Mix it all up and you will be on your way to some Nasty Major Pentatonic Blues Licks!

I've got a membership. It's worth the $$$, But YOU have to practice. Brett's a great teacher as well as a great player. He breaks down everything so that even a doofus like me can understand it.
Haha thanks Jimmy! Everyone has to practice. Even the monster players here in Nashville still practice every day.
I just never thought about being without my amp before,
I remember first seeing you on Marty Schwartz's channel a long long time ago and here you are now years later providing some of the best lessons on RUclips! Excellent content sir.
Wow thanks! Thanks for watching all these years!
I’ve got the yearly membership and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done! I love the Kajabi app format and I can check out any video at anytime to practice. And you Brett are the man! And I thank you for everything I learn everyday. Cheers buddy from the U.K. 🎸🍻
Thanks so much for the support! So glad to hear you like the membership!
Just started to practice more seriously and wow practicing while watching your lessons really made me improve in such an extremely short time. Thank you so much Brett Papa!
Awesome to hear! Glad I could help!
You rule Brett, always make me smile when I'm watching your vids, been my favourite thing on youtube for a long time .(10 years) .You are the awesomest guitarist and tutor ever! So lucky to have found you. MERCI ,MERCI, MERCI !!!!!!

Haha! Thanks man! Glad you like the videos!
Brett...loved the "flower/survivor" analogy!
Lol! Thanks Rick!
Brett, I was kicking around on my guitar with the ideas you taught in this video....and suddenly I remembered an old song that was on one of Johnny Winters first studio albums...the song is called " Ain't nothing to me" And in that song there is a lick that resolves first to the Em chord and then you play the exact same lick only this time you resolve to G.... it works and sounds good. LOL- way cool and good song....check it out if you can.......😃
Another great lesson papa.🎸👌
Thanks Paul! Glad you liked it. Thanks for tuning in.
You Go Brett! BTW, I ordered ‘Departure’ and it arrives today, so I’m gonna check out what you said about Schon on your last video! Carry On! 👍🎸✌️😎

Great lessons, first time major pentatonics clicked for me, and Ive had several guitar teachers that could teach me to play, but not understand it. Thanks dude!
Awesome to hear! Thanks for checking it out!
Just signed up for the membership a minute ago and I'm already playing better! Seriously, one of your videos on YT last week just seriously connected some dots for me. Looking forward to sitting with all of your lessons
Thanks so much Charles! You will have to let me know what you think!
I refuse to make a joke about getting stuck in a Rutt.
@@slowpoke7888 Thank you for the effort....
So glad to hear you mention Frank Marino. Probably my most played album front to back is Frank Marino "The Power of Rock and Roll". I don't hear many people talk about it though.
So good!!!
A guitarist that uses the "wiggle stick". You are the man, Brett! Love to see you work on a Jazzmaster/Jaguar.
Haha! That is one guitar I have never really messed with.
Mate - that’s an awesome lesson and great perspective. We’ll done!
Thank ya! Glad you liked it.
Love that Tuttle ! Mine is awesome too.
Yep he makes epic guitars! Love mine too!
Good stuff 👍🏼
One of the most melodic solos I’ve ever heard (and that’s coming from someone who puts Neal Schon at the top of that list) is from your CAGED Improvising Concepts video from 9/7/2018. What a perfect set of licks over those chord changes.
Wow thanks man! Glad you liked it!
Killer tone !
Thanks Robert!
I was one of the 15. Been debating the course. I figured I’ve gotten enough out of your free RUclips videos alone to justify grabbing the course. There’s a lot of content to go through!
That's awesome! Thanks so much for the support. Tons of new stuff is going to be added soon!
Hey Brett. My first video with you after being recomended by Paul at studio Rats. this is flipping eye opening. this is the stuff I am learning right now. very very helpful. thankyou
Awesome to hear Ernie! Thanks for coming over to check out the vids! Glad you like them!
Hi Brett, i am so intrigued how you explain in your lesson's, how do i get on to your system, i can relate to how you teach, specially on the Pentatonic scales and Arpeggio's and triads, how can i get more literature from you, how dpes one go about it, i live in SA -- CAPETOWN.
Im just introduced to Frank Marino and thank you for the introduction,,, I think it would be an awesome idea to have him on as a guest on your channel !!! Its unfortunate that a lot of these greats didnt social media around back in their day. Listening to Red House now,,, lol hes ike a BB King influenced, George Benson rock, jazz, blues ,,, trio ! Love it Hands Down !
Yep Frank is amazing! I'd love to get him on however I think he is having some health issues right now.
I remember hearing Frank Marino on the California Jam 2 album in the 70s. BLEW MY MIND. I was always disappointed that he/Mahogany Rush was never played on our rock/AOR stations.
For sure! You can find that on RUclips. Crazy good!
Thanks brett ...
Sure thing!
it just keeps getting better on this channel ... !
Thanks Allen! Glad you like it!
That neck pup sounds awesome with that amp pairing! Sweet tone foe sure
Thanks!
Yes... Papa ready for more licks
Awesome! Well here ya go! More on the way!
You mention Frank Marino, saw him in 79' hands down the loudest concert Ive been to. I thought my ears were gonna bleed. Great lesson!
Lol! I bet. Frank does not mess around in any way!
Hey man, big fan of your work! I really like these lessons on nasty blues. I haven’t watched this one yet but really dug the one on nasty minor pentatonic licks. I was considering purchasing one of your lessons. Do you have a full lesson on your site that covers all the nasty blues licks in more detail ? Thanks 👍🏼
Yes the blues soloing secrets series and the upcoming mixing major and minor course does. If you get the membership you get them all!
@@BrettPapa ah, good salesman 👍🏼. I may do that, we’ll see. I wish I would I have seen the 50% deal, very gracious. I’m sure I’ll pull the trigger on either a course or a membership sometime soon. Thanks 🎸👍🏼
Hey Brett- One of the best lessons I have ever seen from you! Nice job. I can not tell you how much it means to me that you mentioned how great Don Felder and Joe Walsh are or were -especially the Licks they came up with on Hotel California. IMO Joe is not mentioned near enough as a great player and if it wasn't for -Don - a lot of the Eagles "Hits" wouldn't have been hits at all.
Thanks to guitar jams years ago I found yours and Tims channels.
Really cool short cut to the "Idon"t knowion" modes.
😅
Haha! Thanks for watching!
Ok yeah the Frank Marino video is pretty powerful and I like jazz too . Way to go Frank and rock on Brett to bring back memories from Mahogany Rush.
Yeah that Frank stuff is so good! He was a beast!!!
Fank Marino & Mahogany Rush! Saw them when I was about 14. Was blown away!
One of the best!
Can plz u teach how you use that middle finger to add extra notes into your runs. ? Great video thanks 👍
I see Brett has a different guitar and get the feeling he's loving it. The tone sounds great, and I reckon his right hand is enjoying a break from that annoying volume pot on the end of the bridge pick up. Some nice Walsh / Felder style licks in there to enjoy.
Thanks Paul! Yeah Michael Tuttle the guitar maker made me a custom guard for that guitar which was awesome of him to do. Fantastic guitar! Thanks for watching!
Good vid
Thanks Colton!
When I clicked on your videos I just automatically hit the like button. Never regret it!
Lol! Thanks so much!
Love your channel...really love you gave Frank Marino a shout out. RealLive is fantastic. Right after red house he pops into He's calling ...another face melter
It's all face melter with him!
The more I learn about playing guitar and improvisational soloing, the more I realize that you can conceivably land on ANY note in any given piece. But if you want it to sound good and sound like it belongs, you have to understand the structure of what you’re playing.
This lesson really helps explain how and when it works to play certain notes. I feel like BP has given me permission to play certain things that other guitar teachers have said to stay away from.
Thanks for the lesson. There’s a LOT to learn here…
Sure thing! Thanks for watching!
Great video Brett. What would you suggest for beginners to get to intermediate? Do you have any beginners blues courses on your website?
Yes I do. There are the Blues Soloing Secrets courses that have a level one. The membership is basically going to be the same price with the discount and you will get everything. That's enough for years lol!
I need this. Been playing with a countryish band and everything is in major which hasn’t been what I’ve been practicing
Haha! Yep you are gonna need it for country.
U DA MAN!
No you da man!
You're always working your ass off Brett - OH and you just mentioned Frank Marino, that dude is a bad ass! I would love love love a Frank series!!! I don't believe anyone has done a Marino deep dive - Might you be the first?
Thanks Kevin! Yeah a Frank series would be epic. I would definitely need to woodshed a ton for that one!
yo Brett, GREAT (GREAT!) video. Would be good if you could demonstrate these licks on a backing track tho. do you have these pedals where you can record your chord progression then play it back? if you do, perhaps you can do that, then demonstrate the licks on top of the chords so we really hear it. I think it would be even better, but great video man.
Yeah I do have one. I'll have to drag it out.
Brett Papa!!! Sempre super super👏 un abbraccio dalla I Italy Canale Monterano 👌wow ciaooooo grazie mille
Claudio Smiraglia
Haha! Thanks!
Brett, thanks for this class... But i've one question...
Why are you using a Gmajor/Eminor scale if it seems this progression (using G/F/C majors etc) is in C major / A minor key ????
Thanks! It basically becomes a G Mixolydian scale which is the same shape as the A minor/ C major scale.
Some lovely stuff ! Think of the song “mother heads family reunion” and the Native Tongue album by poision. You can hear this style all over Richie Kotzens playing
Yeah for sure. Richie is amazing at this style.
So glad you mention Frank Marino... I cut my guit- teeth on Frank/Robin Trower/Johnny Winters/Rory Gallagher.....Frank Marino @ the AGORA Theater (unbelievable) He's still got it- Baby.
Yes he does! His jazz chops have only gotten better!
You man sat next to you in Mr. Marino's class. Van Halen bro. Great to see you doing well.
Thanks!
You might remember me. Hooked you up with van Halen tix in I think 92. Had a baseball game. You were the best guitarist I had seen. You popped up and you had Eddie's les. ,👍👍. Memories. Man. Didn't realize you brought up Marino in this session. Yeah cdm Marino. Just saying hello. Awesome to see some highschool people doing right. Later.
Quick question… in the first progression (7:20) example shouldn’t it be an F# that you use instead of an F since your in G major? Thanks.
That is the typical Rock way to do a progression and it makes it more of a mixolydian mode which is still a major mode. G Major pentatonic also doesn't have a F# in it so it all works.
@@BrettPapa okay got ya ! Thanks !
i remember Frank Marino & Mahogany-Rush, saw them back in the 70's KILLER good stuff...Monster Good stuff!!! ;0/ M
Yes sir. Straight up terrifying!
Next time you are at a Wal Mart, big grocery store, Home Depot, Lowes, etc. look for a Bottle Brush to clean your blender with so you don’t cut your fingers anymore. Por favor. Thanks. 👍🎸🙏😎✌️
Lol! Pretty much. Funny thing is that I already have one. Was just in a hurry!
@@BrettPapa It is amazing that is how most accidents happen, being in a hurry. You are the Man, you still have more digits than Django Reinhardt. LOL Play On Jimi !!!
Your characterization of people who like jazz is uncalled for and near unforgivable. I'm pretty much a simple person with simple tastes but I love jazz. I feel an emotional involvement with the music, from the early stuff with Louis Armstrong et al to bebop and beyond (especially the avant garde of the sixties). I'm not the cartoon stereotype you as much as sneered at. Is the music of Parker, Blakey, Mingus, Coltrane, The Art Ensemble of Chicago and associates something created by and for poseurs? I think not.
It was a joke lol! I listen to jazz heavyweights around the house all day. Love Jazz. Some of the greatest phrasing and composing ever. Think you might be taking my videos a little too seriously if you are not familiar with the channel I joke around a lot.
I recently just discovered Phillip Sayce. Dude is terrifying!
Yes he is!
Howdy
Hello!
BRETT PAPA< When playing the top 100 minor pentatonic licks and then move 3 frets down to be in MAJOR pentatonic and play those same top 100 minor pentatonic licks they sound horrible any reasons what I'm doing wrong and how to use those same minor pentatonic licks only 3 frets down to be in Major pentatonic and they sound good? Can you make a video lesson about this problem and issues and go over the theory on how to make it work
This video does discuss that. But I can make some more to help.
@@BrettPapa I watch the whole thing but when you play minor pentatonic licks and move those SAME minor pentatonic licks 3 frets down they don't work they sound horrible so there must be some type of modification of the fingering to do when moving down 3 frets in major pentatonic that would make those same minor pentatonic licks sounds good
@@BrettPapa Can you make a video lesson about a bunch of Frank Marino Jazz licks or how he uses Jazz notes in his blues pentatonic licks because he has a few live albums and his studio albums have some jazz licks
It's where you resolve, ending the phrase on best note
@@michaelgallagher3640 I resolve on the 1-3-5 but the bent notes and everything else sounds horrible using the same minor licks 3 frets down in major pentatonic box
Papa what we gonna do WITHOUT tubes in our amps?
I've heard that a lot of that just got sorted out. I've had the same tubes in my amp for 12 years with zero problems.

Yep for sure!
Damn it! I guess I need to trade my martini and long sticked cigarette for a spliff and a can of Schlitz
Lol! That is a good one!
I was too slow! :(
There should still be a discount not the full 50% but something.
I love your videos, but I don't watch a majority of them , they're just to long?
All good. There is so much short form stuff out there we just do deep dives over here.
