I have been playing guitar for almost 50 years and then when Covid hit, I decided to actually learn some theory and something I have always wanted to do which is play some lead and solo and understand what I was doing. I picked up quite a bit in 2 years and then found you. Your simple explanations have opened up a lot of doors for me to help take what I have learned and start applying it. Knowing scales is one thing but moving into them, using them to compliment chords and such has helped me advance a lot. Wanted to just let you know that. You simplified the cage system (without calling it that) dramatically so I can actually use it. Thanks.

I actually picked the guitar up for the first time at the beginning of the pandemic at 57… my Doc told me I’d better find a hobby to get me through this… lol. I’ve been teaching myself all of the chords and pentatonic shapes and found that theory was the only way I could put all of the puzzle pieces together. Now however, I’m stuck in pentatonic purgatory… it sounds good but I want more.

Thank you! I've been playing for 36 years. I'm 53. I play in our church praise band and up until recently I've never tried to solo over the chord changes. I always just played along with the chords. I (and my band mates) have enjoyed my new found "noodling". Your lessons make it easy. I've known "easy shape" for most of those 36 years, just never really used it. Not sure if you are a believer, but your lessons are helping me help others praise God!

Love this lesson, something I probably knew but never connected. I know all the shapes and can move between them. The problem I face is that it still doesn’t sound melodic. Can you do a lesson on how to make it sound more musical instead of just moving from note to note. It’s not just note selection, it’s how quickly and differently you move between the notes that I can’t seem to improve on. Great to see the channel growing!

[@bmrbca3658]

I struggle with this also. I can run the fretboard in both directions, skip strings, jump patterns, etc. But when I "play" it still sounds like a scale exercise.

Great channel, you explain things so much better than other teachers.... Ive been struggling with this for ever and you made it simple.. One idea would be to show licks for the 4 and 5 chords. I always get gummed up in the 5 position as I switch positions but the 5 chord is only played for a short time so by the time I switch its time to switch again....

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thanks! And yeah, I think you have a good idea there. I might expand on that in a future video. 🤔

[@daviddowie828]

This is a great introduction into playing over the changes, but most guitar players still need to know which note or note options they need to land on last....before the change. Especially if they hit the chord first and then finish on a lick before the change.

[@Cress7]

Hi great information does this also work for Major Chord progressions ? It would be great if you could do a video on it Thank you .

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

It sure does work in major with the Major Pentatonic scale. Maybe even better. Try this video of mine which is similar but for major pentatonic. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZqkcomrp66Wo7M

[@noodlemans]

I’m pausing the video at the 3 minute mark to ask this question. When you switch to Dm pentatonic east shape, you’re playing in the key of Dm, but the song is in Am. Why does this work? Everything I’ve learned so far says to stay in key, and go into a different pentatonic shape, but nope you stayed in easy shape and just changed frets. Mind blown a bit. Ok, at 7:30 you’re switching keys again. 🤯

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

You can use minor pentatonic of each minor chord. It's not really a key change. Those 5 notes of the pentatonic are still all in key. For example, the notes of the full A Minor are A B C D E F G. The notes of Minor Penta are A C D E G. The notes of D Minor Penta are D F G A C. They are still all notes in the key of A minor. It works if you change everything to major as well. Pentatonics are like magic.

[@1man1guitarletsgo]

This is a great explanation to help guitarists unlock the fretboard, without needing to read anything other than the shapes they already know. I just came from a video where the guitar was much clearer and less buzzy, so I suspect your action is a little too low.

[@MaxRadin]

Will this concept work in a 1-4-5 blues - or just a minor blues? I thought there were times when you didn't want to go to the minor 4 pentatonic. Thanks!

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Good point, this is definitely for a minor blues, or a minor key that has a IVm chord. Generally speaking when you have a minor chord, you can use the minor pentatonic of that chord. Thanks for the great question 😎🎸

[@julielocke-balish1707]

Thanks! I’ve been waiting for you to talk about this! So all Am shapes are pattern 1 and all Dm shapes are pattern 4 ? How does this link to the caged system or does it… I thought in your other video with CAGED system and playing over chords that pattern 2 goes with any chord using the E shape But maybe that’s the major pentatonic.. yikes I get so confused with what patterns go with which chords… ugh I’d appreciate any clarification ,thanks😊

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Hi Julie, If I understand your question.... all the pentatonic shapes are movable, just like bar chords. So Shape 1 aka Easy Shape has its root on the low E string. Therefore if we start Easy Shape with the first finger at the 5th fret of the low E string, we would have A minor pentatonic. But if you move that same shape up to the 7th fret, it would be B minor pentatonic.

[@julielocke-balish1707]

@@GuitarLessonsVancouver yup I know all of that but what I guess I mean is if someone is playing a G on the third fret (which is an E shape chord) then I can use pentatonic pattern 2 to solo over that then if they play a C on the third fret and 5th (which is an A shape chord) then I can use pattern 5 pentatonic to solo over that .. (and G shape chords are pattern 1 and so on)so that each caged shape has a pentatonic pattern to go with it? now in this video you say any Am shape anywhere you use pattern 1 (easy shape)minor pentatonic over it and a Dm you play pattern 4 (funny shape you call it) so all minor chords are either an Am or Dm shape right.. lol.. I’ve been trying to practice how to play a chord and do a bit of solo all in the same space then switch to another chord and do the same with a 1,4,5 progression. I watched your other video on that and it helped me. ( Can you play chords and solo at the same time)I know all the pentatonic shapes and working on using the CAGED shapes all over the frets. Sorry for sounding so confusing ..maybe I’ll just join your patreon..😊

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

@@julielocke-balish1707 It's hard to explain in a comment but I think you are getting it. Any E-shape chord you can use Shape 2 for Major pentatonic. Any Em-shape chord you can use easy shape 1 for minor penta. And etc. Each chord looks a bit like a scale shape. That means we are changing scales for each chord. Which is cool when it suits the song. Though we don't have to. We could also just stay in the scale for the root chord even as the chords change. We have options. If you're still stuck get in touch with me through my website or Patreon maybe I can help 😀

Great video for the minor pentatonic and minor chords. But what about the Major pentatonic? It doesn't have a 4 in its interval. Help!

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Good point! You can use the Major Pentatonic of the IV chord. This video shows you how to do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZqkcomrp66Wo7M

[@GNA2511]

@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Great.. will watch!! But while noodling around (gasp!) In A Major Pentatonic, I found the D note outside the scale is in fact the Lazy B string (4th position) of the D Major Pentatonic. Right there inside the Easy Position of A Major Pentatonic. Good stuff!! 🙏

[@ToddMoonbounce]

Massive light bulb realizing that the "funny b string shape" is simply the easy shape shifted over one string while keeping in mind the tuning difference between the g and b strings.

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

You got it! That's why I call it Funny B instead of Shape 4. I find it's more descriptive and easier to remember which one it is.

[@NickJardine]

To summarize, the pentatonic shapes contain the following chord shapes inside them: Position 1-5 = GEDCA major Position 1-5 = EDCAG minor

[@delcapslock100]

I like this approach and see that it works but aren't you changing keys with each chord change?

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Not really a key change. Turns out that the notes of the pentatonic for the IV and V chords are still all in key. Remember pentatonics are only five notes of full scale so they all overlap those seven notes. You could even think of it as a clever arpeggio for each chord: root, min3, 4th, 5th, min7.

[@DmitriSkif]

How to play the same in major? Switch the pentatonic box 3 frets higher to change the roots into parallel major scale, right?

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

I always use the "first finger pinky rule" to find Major Pentatonic. I find it easier than counting frets. Also it helps us to see where the root is. There's a video on that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKe7fpiZm9KbmsU

This is so helpful, first time watching. BUT, the end lost me. What the heck is 5 chord?😂

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

It's a music term to refer to the relationship of the chords to each other. If Am is the 1 chord (the root chord), then Dm is the 4 chord, and Em is the 5 chord. Normally we use roman numerals for this, so I, IV, V. Works for any key. In C major, C is the I chord, F is the IV chord, and G is the V chord.

How does this work with a minor pentatonic over major chords like in rock n roll?

[@wernervanderwalt8541]

The minor pentatonic is just the minor scale with two notes removed. Play the major chords and look for the relative minor

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

It's true it's partly because of the notes that are removed, but still there is dissonance when we play, say, A minor pentatonic over a song in A major. But it's the sound of the blues and rock, and it has been around for over a hundred years now, we're used to hearing it. It's "good" dissonance.

[@nckcunningham]

@@GuitarLessonsVancouver so do I just follow the same guidelines as in this video? Play a minor pentatonic over the A chord, play d minor pentatonic over the D chord, and e minor pentatonic over the E chord?

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

@@nckcunningham I see what you mean... not quite. If you have a major key I - IV - V, let's say the key of A, the blues or rock thing to do would be to play A minor pentatonic over the whole thing. But if you want to change scales in that case, it would be better to use other options, like a different Major pentatonic for each of the I the IV and the V. This video here called the Magic Scale covers that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZqkcomrp66Wo7M

What about minor to major chords within a key?

[@funkyfreshEazyO]

What confuses me wirh this explanation is that if the song starts out in Am and you play the easy shape/pattern 1 how can you also play the essy shape/pattern 1 up the neck where you play the Dm? Wouldnt that but the solo in a different key? .....then I watched the video further and saw you playing position 1 and 4 in the same section of the guitar. I always thought i had to move up and down the neck to change which patrern I played, orherwise id be playing in a different key. Maybe I don't understand the key???

Not necessarily. The key center stays the same. Pentatonic is only five notes and we're just using it to highlight the notes of the chords underneath. Those five notes don't actually take us to a different key by coincidence. That's one of the great things about pentatonics.
