Everyone talks about using the chord tones but you do it with out the inferred pressure of the theories. Very useful and simple.

Hi Mark, Great lesson as always, your range of material is impressive and your teaching style accessible and extremely useful and helpful. Don't take this the wrong way as I hope you can take a little ribbing......all of us out here in the youtube viewing audience have come to know the instructors/teachers/presenters as we see the videos week after week stretching back many years in many cases. We all know you better than you know any of us. I find reading other viewers comments is often insightful and I myself am no stranger to making comments on various youtube videos or sports blogs or the like, often of a rhetorical or humorous nature. Anyway where I am going with this is the last video of yours I watched and really enjoyed was on a Jump Blues Solo, this was about October or November and the video was from a few years back. I'd seen a few other videos of yours in the past few years so I was taken back a little.....wait a minute, "where's Mark?".....last time I saw him he was giving a instructional video and appeared like he just got off his job as a CPA and found time to do a video, time before that he was riffing guitar licks in a crewcut. Must have been during the lockdown and your son home from college was an "influencer" of another sort with a bag and a bong. I'm an old hippie with a ponytail and black coffee is the strongest I indulge in so I thought I'd poke a little fun...... Robbie in Colorado

@robnic522 жыл бұрын
Great lesson again thank you. Your demo solo was fab but as a new concept it would have helped me a lot to hear you show the difference between playing the straight A minor pentatonic, then gradually start also hitting the third from the coming D7 or E7 chord. Rather than going straight into a whizz all-over the neck lead break, inspiring, aspirational but hard to relate it to the lesson. No worries though, I'll practice this slowly for myself. I think this will be useful.

MZ, When staying in minor pentatonic box#1 how can you make it sound like you're playing the ii chord, iii chord, vi chord? because mostly it always sounds like its the I chord, not the other chords in the key ii,iii,IV, V, vi. I'm trying to stay in minor pentatonic Box#1 but able to make the blues licks sound like other chords in the key, instead of the blues licks always sounds like they are the I chord.
@MarkZabel2 жыл бұрын
Hi Wayne. I'm not sure of your question, because in the context of this video (standard blues I7, IV7, V7 in A) there are just as many chord tones in the Am pentatonic for D7 as there are for A7 - and the same ones in the chord. (1, 5 and 7, no 3rd). So "sounding like D7" shouldn't be any more difficult than "sounding like A7" and in my opinion it isn't any more difficult. The general answer to your question though is basically given in this video - play chord tones. And if a chord tone is out of the scale, then feel free to play that note - the note that's not in the scale. And don't worry about complex "what is the new scale" theory, because it's as simple as "I play the note because it's in the chord". That's the theory. Most melodies come from chord tones with scale tones OR chromatic tones connecting them. A bit deeper, the chord tones that really work well are the 1, 3, and 7. IMHO one of the weaknesses of strictly using the minor pentatonic over a blues (not minor blues) is that the 3rd of the I chord isn't in the scale. So that, IMHO, greatly limits being able to sound like the I chord - which is why I freely play the C# in an A7 blues (i.e., the 3rd - not in the minor pentatonic).

@@MarkZabelIt is a backhanded compliment, Mark. I use it as a term of endearment and respect to exceptional pickers.....Nothing Personal. I sent the same statement to Redd Volkart, his reply "yea I've heard you play." How's that for a comical retort....Keep up the good work Mark

I followed the concept right up until you started moving up and down the neck. Then I got lost.

Hi. Thanks for your comment. I'm a little confused by your comment however, because the lesson is *only* for one position - the 5th position. However, the concept is exactly the same up and down the neck. I didn't teach the chords anywhere but those near the 5th fret in this video. The demo just shows it can be done. It's not meant to be understood any more than that. (I.e., "Play minor pentatonic, add tones from A7, D7, E7 as desired" is the concept.)
