Finally, ...finally, someone took the time and effort to teach this correctly. Thank u for your videos. I've been self teaching for quite a while, this is what made the light bulb go on.. made a big poster for the wall in the practice room... each position shape and scale... thanks again Preston
I watched many tutorials before but this one is different. The long search is over. Good job sir!
☯️
Dude I'm blown away all the stupid ass books I bought and videos I watched about scales
And no one explained position
I feel relieved and cheated.
Thanx again
Exactly! That's what I've been looking for all over as well. I realise I'm replying to a 3y old comment, you propably know this stuff by heart by now.
Finally, I can find a teacher on RUclips that teaching clearly about Pentatonic :), thanks so much !!!
I have watched a hundred videos on scales. Finally, somebody makes freaking sense. Straightforward, well spoken, very informative. I’m searching for any video or anything he has online. Finally, some sense.
Very good tutorial. It has all the complete Pentatonic Ingredients. Great summarization. Just Wow. Thank you.
I've just deleted 10 videos or so on my bookmarks and replaced them with yours. Best teacher ever!
This is everything. Insanity is its so simple when you explain it, yet ive never seen it explained so simply. This is just amazing sir 🤘 honestly ive not seen another video that explains it any where as near as good, nailed it.
I had the G key down but that was it. I’m like, I’m missing something. What about the other keys? Found your video and feel like I cracked the code (with your help). Thank you so very much!
I haven't seen the pentatonic scale presented this way before- this really solidified the concept for me and I know it will do the same for others. Thanks!
I have looked at many different tutorials and I'm curious as to why different people arrange the patterns in a different orde? Example on another site pattern, 5 here is their pattern 1.
Kudos for this tutorial; I finally got the shapes, keys and notes.
Thank you, Obi-wan
But how do I know what position comes first? Was the 1st position for G and the first position for C and the 1st position for D different? Or is the first position always the same just in a different spot on the neck?
I have just found you and I am a new subscriber as of now. I am a beginner, and have been for a long time. I’ve practice cord shapes. I’ve learned a few licks and a couple of songs. I am learning the neck notes, but have not understood scales and keys until now. I don’t know your name but thank you very much. Ps: I love Blues and I am going check out your channel right now.
Glad you found us! My name is Tony.
You just unlocked so much for me brotha. I appreciate it
Awesome video, love how you broke it down and gave examples at a slow speed where everyone can follow along thanks!
First time I've found a logically easy way to understand how the Keys link to the 5 positions!!! Thank you!
I gotta say, this is the most informative video on the pentatonic scale I've ever seen. Thank you for this. Wish the title said MAJOR pentatonic scales before I had myself saying "OMG, everything I know is WRONG!" Lol.
🎉🎉FINALLY 🎉🎉This was the missing link that I needed...THANK YOU..
Right?! Weird how hard it is to find vids like this!
Wow I can't believe obi wan kenobi is teaching me guitar
thank you very much i am now able to understand the major pentatonic scale much better you really helped me out a lot you took time to explain great job.
This is a game changer explanation for me...I can get my head around the scales.
Great lesson .can you place thouse shapes for download?
Thank you so very much. All this while all were explaining only the basic 5 boxes. But was still a mystery how to play in other keys. You have really taken great effort in explaining in detail in how to play in each key. That has opened my mind completely now. As I am a new learner and was wondering how does this magic happen. I sincerely appreciate your painstaking effort to explain in detail how to play it. Thank you so very much.
Outstanding utilization of the pentatonic scales!! Opened my eyes up tremendously!!
Excellent straight forward communication!! I'm a fingerpicker who wants to learn some lead so I can branch out and jam a little with other people, versus playing by myself all the time. Say what?? There are of course other lessons on scales, but this one "clicks" with me. It's like I now totally --- "get it." Thank you Six String! I truly appreciate it! It really means a lot.
Wow, at almost 78, and been a 'strummer' for almost 50years, but struggled to try and pick up scales, your tuition video finally give me hope and understanding.
Thank you for posting this. Looking forward to torturing this old fingers to learn some new things. Uk
Allan, same here at 75 and started to learn at 14 and still learning. This was a great lesson.
same Allan and Alex at 73 just started 2 yrs. ago, master all major and minor Pentatonic but can not do solo. now all i need is lots of time to practice. best instructor in my book. thanks n God bless.
Been playing for 30 years, finally started learning the pentatonic. This is probably one of the best tutorials on it. Thx
Probably the best tutorial on the pentatonic scale I’ve seen. Thank you so very much.
start the scale on the root note of the first chord?
Hi, can I use any one of the 5 patterns out of sequence as long as u start on the root note?
Walks in to a guitar store and asks for a guitar that looks like me. Fixed him right up.
Ha!
I really appreciate this lesson. but I have been taught what you start is position 1 in G , starting on the low e is 3-6/ 3-5/ 3-5 /3-5/ 3-6 /3-6 . When I follow your instruction {which sound correct} its as follows starting on low e 3-5/ 2-5/2-5/ 2-4/3-5/3-5 why the difference in fret positions.?
that's a beautiful guitar
Best one
Best teacher...
Say my hello from BALI island👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Excellent tutorial.
How do these scales "translate" into making music? Never explained.
Damn!!!! Finally! Thnak you for answering the primary question for beginners: How to link the Pentatonic scales?!! Thank you sir! Very much appreciated!!
Hi ...for all the video I been watching I finely understude thank you ...Yvon
Just like others said, I’ve watched ridiculous amounts of videos and read scales all day but they all made barely any sense. Now after watching this I see WHY the scales are what they are with the different positions for each key. I just don’t understand how so many different very good guitarist who teach online never thought to tell us WHY we play these certain shapes and positions for each scale
What if the key is C7,E7 or some chords like that then what pentatonic would I use?
Thanks for answer because I'm quite confused about this
Earned yourself a subscriber, thanks for the lesson!
Holy shit thank you for this. I’ve been hung up on this concept for a bit. Just couldn’t connect it in my mind. Thank you
Excellent! Finally understand.Great lesson, & "ON MY WAY ". Old beginner blues advocate (77 years young.

Is this major or minor pentatonic? The way I was told is that if you start on the first note of any given position it is minor and if you start on the second note of that position it is major, which would make this a lesson for minor pentatonic. Is this correct?
MrPRD same here
Thank you thank you thank you for good explanation it’s so easy to understand you are the best explanation and good teaching good knowledge I really enjoy playing guitar now cause before I was so confuse and more than that too many shit people teaching here and taking money and most of them are show off thank you again for your good knowledge you are the great teacher and instructor and you are very humble
Sir, what was the chord in Key of D you played with two fingers on D & A string. O can anyone tell me please?
Finally this makes more sense to me. It's a long video but everything is clearly explained and the info is all useful. Thank you for not wasting long minutes going off topic. Drives me nuts when I'm trying to learn, what was the entire point of me searching for video to begin with, and ppl take 10 minutes rambling before they start the lesson. I'm definitely saving this and coming back to your channel. Ty!
Great lesson and very well explained. There were important things I had never heard. Thank you. Best wishes from Spain
a lot of talking but not showing slowly the sequence. I can work it out but this doesn't show in a simple slow motion way.
Awesome!. I was looking for this lesson for a long time. Thanks much. One question though; does the shape numbers/positions change for the minor pentatonic scales?
Yes
Alll BS aside I finally found solid explanation . All these years and I never really understood what position meant. Now I get and have learned all 5 positions the notes the neck and the mixolydian. I'm finally playing the guitar
What's he using for a pick, a sunflower seed?
Very confused. Your position 5 is the same as whay every other video says is potion 1.
and so the G pentatonic major scale is just wish you were here pink floyd
is it fender american buttercouch telecaster guitar?? and price?
I finally have an understanding and can play all the positions up and down for whatever key. Thank you!
finnally you find your life objection
VERY GOOD LESSON AND EASILY UNDERSTOOD. IF THERE ARE SOME LESSN ON LEADING NOTES IN PENTATONIC WITH CHORDS
This is the first lesson I can understand more of the Pentatonic and how to use it , very good lesson
That's the best way to understand and learn patatonic scales. Thanks for the lessons.
you had me scratching my head for a moment until I realize that you're playing this out of the major pentatonic scale right and not the minor ?
yes it's the major pentatonic
Holy sh?t man thanks for putting this together. I learned guitar by ear and felt dumb for not understanding or being able to talk about the theory part. This 30 minute video accomplished what hundreds of dollars of guitar books and apps didnt. Thanks again
Great tutorial! but do you ever use minor pentatonics?
That’s the only thing most guitarist playing
It looks like your starting g pent on fsharp
Can someone help me out please. Is there a more systematic approach to finding the positions of the pentatonic scale for each key. Say I'm playing in the key of D major and all I know is where to find the d on that top e string. I would then play position one with that root note. Now I wanna play position 3 in that same key but I didn't memorize all the 5 notes (D,E,F#,A,B,D). Can I still find position 3? Maybe there's a pattern like once you start with position 1 in some key, move x number of frets down to find position 3. I just don't wanna have to memorize those 5 notes for each key in order to find the positions. Thanks!
Do the positions change if the key is minor
So question about 4:45 in the video, were you using the same pattern as you were working up the different positions?
Not necessarily... Just kind of noodling through the box shapes, stringing them together by sliding up to the next one. Thanks for watching!
Hi Great video. I just need to double check something. so in a nutshell, I can play that same shape starting on any note of a specific key and still be in key. as example key of D: D,E,F#,A,B. if I start that shape(pentatonic scale) I will be in the key of D? just want to make sure I understand it thanks
Thanks bron you helped me so much!
I watched the whole 34.32 mins of you!
Great tutorial🤟🏻
Thanks so much for making this video. I've been trying to understand this for a couple of weeks now. You just made it click. Subscribed, yes sir!
I have two printouts of the 5 pentatonic scales. They both refer to what you are calling position 1 as position 2. I am certain you know what you are doing and there is some explanation that I don't know.
Thanks for a quick reply. If id looked at previous questions i would have found your repeating reply to the numbering system. Ive opened up your workshop Major Vs Minor pentatonic and you've made it very clear and most helpful. Thanks again. Great lessons.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
Does each note have a different pattern?
Light bulb!! No one has explained the positions this way before, it make some much sense. You have Demystified this content for me. Thank you!!!!
Thanks man. That helped me so much
wow.. my big question mark on Pentatonic scales just vanished after seeing this video. thanks Six String Country
First.....that is a beautifull guitar, and so fluent playing...looks and sounds effortless . :)Finally I can make sense of the 5 pentatonic shapes, and start using them for where and how to improvise. I have seen a fair amont of videos and articles on this topic but allways felt it lacked som usefullness as a fret/ key navigator. You solved the puzzle for me. Thank you so much for sharing your great teaching skills!
What chord are you using here when showing how to play pent. scale in the key of G and C?
I needed this. finally I get a better understanding of how things go. I will need to watch this a few times to get better.
I have a question but first i just wanna say i love the way you explain the 5 positions and how to use them. I was very confused about this because in all the research ive done on this no one actually explains how the 5 positions are used. This video cleared up most of my confusion. The question I have is can this same concept be applied to the minor pentatonic scale and does the order of the positions change? I watched your other video on the difference between the major and minor pentatonic scale but i still dont completely understand. I heard somewhere that with the minor pentatonic scale you start at position 5 but it seems like everyone numbers tge positions differently and its very confusing
Thanks. Can't believe it's that simple. Wish I had found this five years ago.
1 month in and just starting to understand the logic of this.....playing it is a different story. Thanks! 👍👍👍
I know this video has been up for a while now but I've just had penny dropped moment. I didn't know that the positions should start the next note as it occurs in the scale. The book I had didn't explain that at all.
out of all these teachers? on you tube,you explained so much better & easier than the rest,i was loosing what hair i had left but this really helped me understand the major pentatonic scales. thank you so much.
Whoever you are Sir I really appreciate this tutorial. This is fantastic to the highest level. Some tutorials are just trying to show that their fingers are quick in doing scales but do not really teach the idea behind. The long lots of years of search is finally over.
Nice, someone that just gets straight into it. No intro, no ostentatious solo at the beginning. Just a clear explanation and setting. Good Show. Thank you for your advice.
Just double checking I have got this right, the way you use to work out where to play each position is for a major pentatonic ?
I have been playing for years on and off. At first i only new how to play chords up and down the fret board. From looking at many different ways to learn this concept yours is the best. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome. Thanks
