Now that you've learned how to play the pentatonic scale pattern #1, you're ready to learn another scale, which we'll call pattern #2. It's easy to master with the step-by-step instructions in this video tutorial.
So, we've learned pentatonic pattern 1. Let's learn pattern 2 and then we're going to put it all together eventually, right? So, pattern 2, how about we do it at the 12th fret, so it's going to go 1, 4, 1, 4, 1, 3, 1, 3, here's where it gets tricky, 2, 4, and then 1, 4. So let's go over that again. We have 1, 4, 1, 4, 1, 3, 1, 3, 2, 4, 1,4. Then, of course, backwards we want to do the same thing but just starting on the higher note, right? 4, 1, 4, 2, 3, 1, 3, 1, 4, 1, 4, 1. How about we do it at the 7th fret. 1, 4, 1, 4, 1, 3, 1, 3, 2, 4, 1, 4. How about backwards. How about at the 3rd fret. And, of course, let's try it open. Again, we have to imagine there's a fret here, but we're going to do it in a more natural position, and it looks like this: 0, 3, 0, 3, 0, 2, 0, 2, 1, 3, so no open string there right. Just 1, 3 and then 0, 3 for the last one, and then of course, backwards is the same. There you go, pentatonic pattern 2.

[@tyleralexander8685]

Been digging around to learn more on the pentatonic and this guy nails it as far as teaching no showing off just teaching

[@jacobalexander560]

Couldn't agree more. It's hard to find guitar lesson videos without the showing off and the condescending undertone

[@lemaolmay]

How will u khow that the pentatonic scale will be aply to music

[@hiiimboonk7422]

Leokid. It applies in main solo in a song

[@hiiimboonk7422]

Yeah jacob pretty true but if u move higher step knowing a guitar. You would understand what he says about.

[@glennthewise6613]

Agreed brother

[@sumichowdhury7945]

No showing off, pure teaching. Perfect

[@ofmicekayleigh223]

So after being roasted by my Uncle about not knowing the pentatonix scales when I tried just playing the song with tab and got somewhat past the intro, so I decided to look into some videos and wow. You are the first person over ever watched who doesn't show off and actually thoroughly explains the patterns. Thank you so much!

[@wareagle976]

a friend told me I should learn scale to better myself as a guitar player. thank you for making that possible and not showing off, I owe you a sub my man.

[@IgnorantIguanna]

i feel like i owe this guy a hug

[@iforgor3346]

Same lol 😂

[@rampi_7130]

Yes

[@veryredfumoze]

Same

[@calebhart8011]

Me too he made super easy

[@TurnerOps]

Group Hug...bring it on in....Big Hug 👍

[@joelschroer9793]

And for the people that may not WANT to learn "boring theory", my suggestion is just do it. I sure as heck wish I had "way back when"! There is a fundamental difference between "playing" and UNDERSTANDING 'what' you are playing. With that understanding, your ability to just "jam" will REALLY kick into gear! :-) ASK your teacher if they are not teaching you at least basic theory. Ask questions like "Why does 'this' chord sound good with 'that' chord, and go from there! :-)

[@TheDWeeks]

First demonstrations I've seen after scanning for days, that makes this so simple! Great job, love your videos! Thanks!

[@diegomirandamusic]

I can’t afford to hire a guitar teacher right now but really want to learn the scales. I thank you for not making people pay to learn something necessary to playing guitar.

[@imasuperherolover]

when you have a scale you can play a melody within that scale.. just by going back on fourth on it doing hammer ons and pull offs you will create a melody.. so in a way its a bunch of tones that sound good together.. and you can you have to play relative to the singer.. so if the singer has a deep voice your guitar playing will match, usually not the other way around. cheers and good luck

[@vettemaniac2237]

I echo what others have said here ... But I'll say it anyway. Thank you for understanding the word "beginner" and for breaking down pentatonic scales slowly and clearly. The Tube is loaded with Clapton wannabes who show off their masterful skills more than they teach. I admire those who can play with great skill. I just don't need or want to see blistering solos when I'm trying to learn the basics and working hard at it. Again, thank you. = NEW SUBSCRIBER!!!

[@leascaart]

I LOVE THIS!!! This video should have gazillions of views.

[@MehrozeGillani]

@GirlyGirls432 You see, when you play the scale in the same key your backing track is in, Your able to solo perfecty using scales. Try in out, Start with the root note "A" and play the scale on a backing track which is also in the key of "A". Hope it helped

[@calebhart8011]

I have been watching videos for ever trying to learn this stuff.dude made it super easy.thanks man I'll be jamming now

[@JohnnyDoesStuff]

these videos are great.. ive taken 5-6 lessons, and the person teaching me never taught me scales... great for hand dexterity and picking... both of which i currently suck at lol

[@fortie6902]

It’s weird replying to this 8 years later, but did you get better?

[@jamesboylan225]

@@fortie6902 I’d bet he did. 0 lessons myself but this has been the best thing I’ve learned so far, after chords and strumming patterns.

[@Thisismetman]

Great teaching! Simple and to the point, thank you!

[@cashmeer216]

That you for using fret and string referencing instead of key and note lol I forgot how to read music so now I play by ear lol but I’ll learn again but this absolutely helped!

[@GamingMusicandTech]

Sweet telecaster man! You should name the key of all these scales though.

[@ricardo_gfo5174]

Gaming Music And Tech well that would make it more complicated...if you know your fret you can easily find out all key names :) or like me, i drawed my fret and all key names on a white board so if i ever forget something a can just look it up in a sec

[@Divechase]

ricardo _gfo what do you mean plz explain

[@gids8029]

Austin Ws8 if you know your notes on your guitar then you know the key of the scale.. For example if I played the scale in the video and I started that scale on let's say the 5th fret of the e string closest to your face then thats in the key of A because the 5th fret of the European string is an American note

[@danielhartman5086]

Love the way you teach. You make it so easy to learn fro you. Thank you

[@Jabroni_-xg5bc]

God bless this dude 🙏 teaching free stuff

[@cenohd1963]

thank you so much, im playing acoustic guitar but this still helps a lot

[@cynthiamorgan5222]

you made that look so easy I can't wait to try it thanks for sharing

[@pbfoley]

This guy is awesome. Gets me excited about the guitar again

[@justingharst3779]

Yes! So glad I found this guy.

[@garrettfiles9992]

I like these videos. Very well explained and straight to the point. Love it

[@jaydee7164]

Hey you’re really simple and a very good teacher kudos

[@Ou812em]

According to the majority of books and videos I have seen, this is pattern number 4 for the minor scale and pattern number 3 for the major scale. Just saying. Now I'm really confused. Thanks.

[@haruharu4344]

Thank you sensei🎉 you are a blessing❤

[@dc1010011]

Seen some great teachers on KZbin, but Pentatonic scales were elusive until this player explained and showed it! Thanks! His name?

[@curo5]

Jmr, each fret is one half step, so open E is an E note, the first fret on the E is an F note etc, so whichever fret you play on is the key you play in.

[@iti_meenakshi]

You made it soo easy to learn.

[@0toheroguitardude]

Finally a video gets straight to the point

[@sirchikoz]

man u re the man.I just like the way u do it.Pretty simple for me to follow.

[@dyoungstarmusic2414]

Very nice and easy to understand..thanks very much

[@gustlerjamespuno8889]

[@sundar5537]

[@mikenichols6208]

Best video ever !!!! Ty

[@bilalasghar5551]

You explained really well..very helpful, Thank you!

[@ssmueldatilus727]

thanks good teacher

[@dovadie4544]

I really like this guy

[@rond0808]

KZbin is a godsend for new guitarists

[@psychedelicerudition4081]

Thank you !

[@guitorgan]

Just great, BUT, I'd really like to hear it USED real time with background pattern

[@TKD187]

I like the way you say 1 4 1 3 instead of the actual fret because it's easier to learn and remember then 16 19 16 18 lol cuz I have to count all the way from number 1 to remember where the hell the 19th fret is lol

[@ivchodd4113]

Nice tele by the way😁

[@chanigon]

Many thanks to you.Great.

[@TerraVictor1000]

Is there any lesson about how to insert this to actual the playing?

[@MarkTheTruckinBarber]

Your doing awesome! Thank you for your videos

[@jmr1410]

thanks a lot for uploading this. just a question: how do you know what the key is?

[@paulodestefani8223]

The best way to learn man!

[@priscillayrad]

Love playing this on 12 fret on acoustic with no hole to put my hand

[@ivantrevino5699]

Hey my name is ivan and my dogs name is max and his name is ivan max

[@daily-amir-sweden]

Ivan Trevino hahaha I got it 😂😉👍👍

[@randyrrs7028]

who cares?

[@ivandeguzman691]

Lol, what a coincidence coming from a comment 5 years ago, my name is ivan too and my dog's name is max too

[@narjobulletwe1218]

hey my name is max and my dogs name is ivan, what a name we have hahahahh

[@jamesa1081]

My name is James and my dogs name is maxi. I drink vodka so if I was Russian I could be an Ivan. Close enough I suppose.

[@jonniecrabbsr.3954]

I have been looking for practice scales

[@rovioronald6612]

What are the keys chords used in pentatonic scale of E, F, G, A

[@Marta1Buck]

doing in 12th fret, damn I use small nylon guitar.

[@jacintomausoco715]

Its great...i learned a lot from his tuition

[@yourmama2706]

I love this guys enthusiasm

[@huynguyen-gt5um]

I like it.

[@MrJaejae951]

@ouird because usually people who want to learn to play don't want to start off with the "boring" stuff they want to just learn to play songs right away .. so most teachers never even teach scales they just teach chords and rhythms

[@alexandertiemeyer4501]

What is it giving you that bright sound to your guitar? I’m trying to play a clean sound like B.B King, but I seem to hear a little gain on everybody’s amp when they play these. Any tips to make my setup not sound so flat? The guitar is new, so I’m trying to stretch the strings now, and I’m constantly retuning it to keep it sounding as good as possible, but the sound still falls flat.

[@Makmakmak2]

AMAZING

[@mrblobbyrules98]

thank you very much

[@sixstringsamic.3717]

Thanx a lott man....god bless!

[@blitzue1000]

What is the purpose of scales?

[@MrDarko005]

What is the name of this great man?

[@rks6395]

I'm a beginner ,have a ?,I thought the pattern was 1-4 1-3 1-3 1-3 1_4 1-4 from low E to high E . confused also

[@guitarhome3929]

Super

[@lefty5757]

Thank You :)

[@YippeePlopFork]

Hi! I the link you post pulls up the Apple App Store, but it says that your app is not available in my country or region. I’m based in the U.K. if that helps.

[@lorenzodeimoz6028]

Awesome ur my new teacher maestro

[@ArtistJGH]

You web links do not work. 404 error. The How To KZbin you belong to is so large with so many topics, it is impossible to search for your contributions. I would love to view more on the Pentatonic Scales you discuss, but your resources cannot be found. Too bad, because I was enjoying the lessons.

[@dlonyermargarinoii1506]

hey, Look At Me!! thanks Man!

[@jordan84504]

TO who are you talking??

[@NewProdigy14]

@cuddledorky pray and don't give up

[@Loooam]

I don’t understand how from low E to A you get the same notes with 1-4 1-3 in pattern 1 as, 1-4 1-4 in pattern 2

[@famatu]

You don't get the same notes. There's different pentatonic scales that use different notes from the standard major/minor scales.

[@ziggyplay]

what you explain as pattern N2 is pattern N4 everwhere else. Im a bit confused. If some can clarifiy please. Thanks!

[@grynbadger51]

Is this a minor or a major pattern

[@richardckornegay1078]

John denver fatal aircrash

[@newyorksbeerreviews1280]

Muhammed Tewfik This is NOT pattern 2 of major pentatonic it’s pattern 3

[@fretBeastForever]

Pentatonic Maj and Min are the same :) .. just follow the rythm of the right chord ... .

[@SayManWhatsUp]

Why are the pattens different? Ex. Why is the fingering different from pattern number 1?

[@papai983]

Is it starting on the root note of the scale?

[@chenwang643]

is it just me or are pentatonic patterns vital for playing a decent solo?

[@riichan2895]

bc it is a solo

[@Figey_2022]

Almost all solo's(good ones) are based around the pentatonic shape and stuff.

[@Hering.07]

Bem detalhado solo

[@hchiguvo]

How do these help . And someone tell me how to i know what key to play in when someone sings???!

[@sirchikoz]

u re awesome

[@robertcardenas2019]

So, is this the E minor pentatonic scale?

[@joelschroer9793]

"What Key"? With this video, there isn't an actual "key" that he is playing in. it more of the FORM that he is showing you. Not trying to confuse things here, but he is playing what can be referred to as a "C-form (or "shape") pentatonic scale.(Lesson 60 was "G-form") These descriptions are coming from the "CAGED" method where everything is broken down into relationships between the C,A,G,E,and D. chord forms. (Ref: book "Fretboard Logic SE" ISBN# 0-9624770-6-0)

[@miguelbautista335]

i do agree ahahah

[@shashidharuppada8757]

It's major Pentatonic or minor ?

[@res0zsfa]

i just read through all the comments and i still have yet to find WHAT KEY IS IT - n00b here

[@frogaudio7777]

me too...hhahah

[@TheMegacheesey]

Im noob too but I believe the key just refers to the lowest note on the low e string. So it depends where you move the shape on the neck what key the pentatonic scale is in.

[@jonnystiztv]

Ive been playing for years, you don’t need to know the key!! Just shred homie!

[@johntubcruz4485]

can use it to any chords?

[@boristhespider4879]

Isn't this the FOURTH position of the pentatonic minor scale?

[@newyorksbeerreviews1280]

Umm if your going off of pattern 1 of The A minor pentatonic scale you were doing in the first video, then this NOT pattern 2. It’s pattern 4...you should take this video down, it’s not correct.

[@huw008]

Thanks for the info. I'm quite new to this and was struggling to find out what I was really playing.

[@michaelanthony8106]

but well spotted \m/

[@bebrave9108]

Thank u. This is minor pattern 4.

[@sayanrocks258]

When I play on 6th(E) and 5th(A) string, the 1st string is getting muted with palm muscle. How to avoid these

[@bhavyaoza7052]

Sayan rocks try to go 90 degrees on string

[@PeDuRrHuNt]

what scale is this? sorry i don't know my notes

[@pierrefitch]

should i practice this daily

[@davids1700]

but what chord goes along?

[@tlittle6917]

Thank you Jorge Masvidal

[@untaggedmoron]

whats the name of this scale?

[@siddharthsingh5195]

1-4 1-4 1-3 1-3 2-4 1-4

[@Squade90]

haven`t exemple for playing?

[@kenmcf]

Every guy on the internet has the same patterns but calls it a different number...jezzus

[@ItsGoldieBaby]

Is there a name for this one ?

[@Cetnik125]

what key is this in?
