This is probably the most practical out of the box way of doing pentatonic scale leads. Knowing the 5 boxes is great, but too many people kinda find a box and stay in it. Even as simple as this shape is, it sounds more interesting because of the movement up the neck. Well done. Great advice for newer players or those who haven't dabbled a ton in pentatonic scales before.

I usually don't write comments but this time I have to. My teacher introduced me to pentatonic almost 2 years ago. I was trying to figure out soloing till that time and how to use pentatonic. I was trying many ways of how to understand the pentatonic scale. But this blow my mind. The idea of smaller boxes in different positions. It's so obvious, but no one was able to put it this way. I feel like I finally get it. Thank you so so much for this video. This was one of those ''aha moments''.

Been playing a while and know my boxes, but found your video very helpful and effective. Incredible how much melody and feeling you can get with this simple concept. Nice video. Very clear and understandable. Thank You!

[@dthartman691]

This is the most useful and powerful lesson to teach not only the scale fingering and the box positions... But also HOW to emote when soloing and training your ear to stay in key and on time of the beat and melody rhythm track in the background. This lets you ascend and descend the scalular ladder while practicing your slurs pull off and hammer on techniques and slides, bends, trills whatever. Genius video lesson for any player level to attain better phrases and cleaner more intuitive finger patterns. Join up with normal pentatonic scale patterns or minor scales for building tension with triplets climbing or descending the scale ... Arpeggios for flair, and yes finger tapping for more technical prowess. It's the walk before you shred 😉 method. Love it man.

[@Taxman72]

I've read the comments and I couldn't agree more. I've been playing for a long time just above beginner level, and after countless videos, Jules video unexpectedly popped up. What a stroke of luck!

[@UN1T1Y]

This was the way I was shown to play lead from the start, it was always the half step notes that frustrated me though, but with a lot of practice (especially if your not exactly pitch perfect naturally, as I'm not ) you start to understand and hear where to play them. I'm surprised no one has explained it like this before, I think you've helped a lot of people start being more comfortable with creating a simple melodic solo, rather than just playing fast and hoping no one notices they're not really playing anything, if you know what I mean. Wish I'd have posted this one years ago, I just didn't think it was a "proper " technique, looks like I should've though, there's no really wrong way to play if it works 😀

[@jtbjr58]

If you are 15 and starting out, i'd recommend this lesson, an hour a day, you'll know the fretboard and relate to chords and everything else so much quicker and best of all you'll be playing some impressive enjoyable sounds in no time

Dude, this crash course is fantastic. Thank you. This helped a ton. I’ve never been much of a soloist but I’ve been trying to learn recently.

Thank you. As an absolute beginner, this changed my noodling into something just a tinge bit more coherent. It's also a good base for memorizing the rest of the scale.
