What's the best way to revolutionize your guitar soloing skills with the pentatonic scale?
Discover the common misconceptions about pentatonic scales that might be holding back your guitar playing. This video challenges traditional learning methods by introducing a more effective and musical approach to mastering pentatonic scales for rock and blues guitar soloing.
Learn about the essence of blues and rock guitar theory and why understanding these 5 notes is crucial playing guitar solos.
This method prioritizes musicality and expressiveness over mechanical practice, aimed at unlocking your creativity and helping you find 'hot soloing licks' beyond traditional patterns.
Dive into practical application with a focus on a specific sequence on the 5th and 7th frets of the D and G strings, providing a clear path to start experimenting with your solos.
Understanding the 'A' note on the guitar fretboard is pivotal, and we highlight how to navigate the fretboard to build sweet sounding licks and solos.
The video also delves into how expressiveness and creativity within the constraints of the pentatonic scale can lead to unique and personal musical expressions.
By the end, not only will you gain insightful techniques and theories, but you'll also be encouraged to apply these concepts to revolutionize your soloing skills. This video is your first step towards mastering the art of expressive and musical soloing with the pentatonic scale.

[@garys5175]

Good job Sir. It's like I "knew" this, but I didn't understand what was actually going on. Thank you for opening my eyes, and making me "study" and think about the notes.

[@willripleyguitar]

Awesome! Sounds like we drilled down 1 level deeper for you. That's epic!

You are welcome!

[@gregsterc5294]

Hey Will, Great lesson! You’re an excellent teacher and I really appreciate it. Are you no longer with GMM? Keep up the great work! Thanks!

[@willripleyguitar]

Nope, not with GMM anymore. I'm off on my own with www.WillRipleyGuitar.com Have you checked out The Rip It Up Club?

[@Kirk1914]

Some discussion of intervals would be helpful

[@willripleyguitar]

Thanks for the feedback. Basically rather than R, b3, 4, 5, b7 - The way I teach it in this lesson is b7, R, b3, 4, 5 with the 5 moving up 2 frets, rather than being played on the next string. I know that's a lot to take in so maybe read that another time 😆 Lemme know if you have any other thoughts or questions

[@telefrk49]

Super cool!

[@willripleyguitar]

[@johnolds9210]

Hey Will Thanks. Stopped by to say Hey!

[@willripleyguitar]

Hey!!

[@robreed1337]

does this work the same with the relative major progression as well , seeing as its the exact same notes but just a different tonic note . ie c major

[@timg5011]

That backing track sounds like a late-60s Beatles song, and I can't remember which one...

[@Myrtle11123]

Link is not valid for the courses

[@willripleyguitar]

@@Myrtle11123 looking into this. Thanks
