This is for sure in the top 3 guitar channels in KZbin. I've been playing for over 10 years, and I've seen tons of videos about pentatonic scales. I tell you this is the best. No one can make things easier than this girl. Everytime I watch a video on this channel i learn something, even if I already know the subject.

I had learned this previously! But I didn’t understand about how you can scoot it up and down the neck for different keys!!! Wow! That unlocked something for me! Thanks Ayla!!! This even helped support my understand of what keys are in general!!!! Like, feel stupid that I didn’t know but a D major or minor key has root note of D, so I start there and can do my scale with index or pinky based on if it’s major or minor!

[@ENGABU1]

I've been playing for too many years to disclose...I "understand" pentatonic scales...but this is the finest example of putting it to use in very simple terms. Of course there are other "shapes"...but for most of us "non lead" players...this gets the job done.

@@itsyeboijosh4488 Disagree, the thing about guitar is shapes let you visualise everything everywhere. Chords, scales, triads, arpegios, intervals, lines, chord tones... You have to know them until they become second nature

[@itsyeboijosh4488]

@@cyrnoz1803 i don't rely on shapes but I can solo over any key and play all over the neck without getting lost. If you rely on shapes, your playing will be limited, restricted only within the bounds of the shapes that you know. Music is not about shapes you visualize in your head, music is about sounds, vibrations, and how you manipulate them to summon emotions that you could not put into words.

[@cyrnoz1803]

@@itsyeboijosh4488 Agreed, it's about sounds and colours. I just link a colour to different shapes and can recall it when ever I want/feel like it all over the neck. Most of the greats do it this way, so no need to be so elitist :)

@@almightyminataur4000 Sure, I only played piano back then. And some musician(don't remember who) said that Jimi Hendrix played all of his solos using just a five-note pentatonic scale. I thought to myself back then, how is that even possible. Since learning on guitar, I found that was mostly true. Of course, all his bends, and vibratos stretch those five notes a bit.

What theorie does a chord progression makes it in E ore A ore whatever. Is that just starting with rootnote (chord) E ore A?

[@jlinkpro]

A chord progression has chords that are in a key. the chords are labeled by their root note, and the type, such as A minor (A root, and minor chords include the note 3 half-steps up from root, and the note 7 half steps up; C and E in this case). they always use the same pattern in terms of what notes are built; A minor is the same in C major scale, and G major scale. A scale is labeled by root note and type, also. Root note is the first note, and each note is determined by the spacing of notes going up to the next octave. Minor scales do root + 2 half-steps up, 3 half steps up, 5, 7, 8, 10, then 12 half steps up makes for being back at the octave (root note). a better way to think of this is root note, then +2, then +1, +2, +2,+1,+2,+2. Major scales are root,+2,+2,+1,+2,+2,+2,+1. any other scale (harmonic minor, pentatonic, whatever) can be thought of in this way. pentatonic has 5 notes, the standard major and minor keys have 7, and yes there are 6 note keys, etc. as long as the note pattern is the same octave to octave, any collection of notes in an octave can be repeated to make a scale more or less. when people talk of playing in g major, that means they use mostly only the notes G (root), A (+2), B(+2), C(+1),D(+2),E(+2),F#(+2), and that brings us back to G (+1) (root one octave up). if the played E chord;( most normalized chords are a note in a scale, then a note 2 up from root note, and the note 4 up from root note); we can see that the 2 notes up from E is G, and 4 notes up is B. As G is 3 half steps up from E, and B is 7 half steps up, we can also note that E chord is most likely actually E minor, because we built it in G major key. you will find the major and minor keys have 3 major chords, 3 minor chords, and 1 diminished chord (root +3 half steps and root +6 half steps up: it sounds.... dissonantly funky) built in to them, if major or minor is not specified for a chord, usually that means whatever fits naturally in the given key; E is E minor in key of G major in my example. if no key is given, and no chord type is mentioned, assume major chord. ... hope his helps

[@chrisking6695]

The first chord of the chord progression determines the key. So of they start on E major it's a safe bet to say the root is e. Of course there's loads of fusion songs that sound all funky and start on a chord that's within the key but not the root but that's on you to figure out (you'll hear it).

[@neaituppi7306]

This what everybody I knew that played guitar, myself included, but didn't have access to consistent teachers would do. Someone would show us this pentatonic scale form, and we would just move it up and down the neck, depending on what key. We didn't even use the pinky technique. Oh, that sounds like it is in E, we play it on the seventh fret B. For years that is all I knew. It makes me cringe. Because we all sounded alike. Many guitarists didn't ever even go beyond that, for guitar solos.
