One Pentatonic Pattern Does it All?

[@xachjanzen3216]

This is the best explanation of the fretboard I have ever seen. So well explained, and instead of just giving us the shapes you actually elaborate on how they can apply to chords which was really helpful to me. I’ve been so focused on learning all the pentatonic shapes but not paying attention to how they relate to the actual notes in the scale. Thank you for this

Glad it was helpful!

Great job in filling in the blanks of Doug's video. This made it crystal clear for me. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@tooofart]

Glad it was helpful! Thx for the comment.

[@crazed1x]

Great lesson.. as a beginner I stumbled on this awhile back and found it way easier than trying to remember multiple patterns. It’s the same pattern and same intervals all over the fretboard

[@tooofart]

Keep at it, thanks for watching!

[@Gordon-n3q]

Fantastic . Thank you.

[@abbeyglencircle]

Super, logically explain, how they are connected to one another. It takes away memorizing pain. Thank you❤

Glad it was helpful!

Hi a perfecct logical explanation of the penntatonic scale............ Bravo this is the way it should be expained Thanks all my students agree and I admire your clear and concise way of explaining the way it should be understood All my best regards and thank you for putting this on line

[@tooofart]

Glad it was helpful!

[@roydavies-e1m]

all you are is a.........bloody good teacher!!!.......i hate all the musos who kinda confuse with details that are not pertinent to learning the basics.....you cut to the chase and i understood the landscape of the fretboard....THANKS FOR YOUR GENEROSITY IN SPREADING THE GOOD STUFF FOR FREE!!

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Rock on!

[@dudhack1888]

This is such a simple explanation. Thank you!!

[@tooofart]

Glad you think so! Thx for watching.

Great video! I like the regular guy approach. Thanks for posting. You did simplify Doug’s video.

[@tooofart]

Thanks for your feedback, rock on!

[@Nimnem]

Just started learning 2 weeks ago. This video couldn’t have come at a better time 🙏

[@tooofart]

You got this! Rock on.

Thanks ,U explained & demonstrated THIS lesson SO clearly, I AM SUBSCRIBED.

[@tooofart]

Thanks for the sub! Rock on!

[@corvuscorax9265]

This is what Doug’s video should have been like. I finally get it and it is eye opening…

[@tooofart]

Thanks for the feedback! I've got a couple more videos on my channel that could be helpful.

[@Gor537]

That was incredibly informative! Great job!

[@tooofart]

Hey, thanks for the comment! Glad you found that helpful.

[@flouisbailey]

Stumbled on this and I’m very confused, I think I need to watch a few more times. The perfects 1/4, 1/3, make my head hurt.

[@tooofart]

They're not fractions, they are notes in a scale. Grab a coffee and watch this one, should help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXXZZ2NpfsqUoaM

[@tomm5023]

That’s why it is important to learn triads and major scale at the same time. You will see these patterns over time. The problem is in how deep you go in the exercise. If you just play shapes that is what you will learn: a shape. If you go deep and say out loud the note and degree, you will learn relations. Going deep however takes continuous daily effort for years and that’s were most fall off.

[@RobKL2008]

Such clear clarification, thank you. May ask in what app software are you doing this amazing clear work?

[@tooofart]

Thx for the feedback, I'm using Google Doc :)

[@mauriliofreire]

Amazing content!

[@tooofart]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@SolidBuildersInc]

Thanks for the Pentatonic Vision. I think this will go a long way. I've seen the Rotation of the Pentatonic before but you squeezed some more simplicity into how to view it. If there was a way to tie in some Triad Inversions off from the Root with some chord progressions, I guess we will be Masters at Guitar. Great Job

[@tooofart]

Thanks so much for the feedback!

[@ForwardLookingDiver]

Nicely done. But I'm curious about one thing, why at about the 8-9 minute mark you use F and C on the wrong strings and frets. Could you not have made the same point using the actual notes for the position? Perhaps I have completely missed the point of that particular exercise.

[@tooofart]

It was to demonstrate that, on a normally tuned string, G, C and F are all on top of each other, but when traversing the B string, they shift. Using the actual notes conveys the same message. Thanks for watching!

[@allenbrininstool7558]

Come on man! At each root start the pattern again and adjust on the B string. Add the blue note in each

[@cblue1234]

Let’s call 3 frets a long and 2 frets a short. The pattern is 2 long followed by 3 shorts over and over. That’s the one and only pattern. All 5 pentatonic patterns are really this one pattern with 5 different starting positions. The b string can make this a little harder to see but there’s still just one pattern.

[@johncarlo7395]

Oh no! not another boring, overdone, minor Pentatonic video,

[@tooofart]

You betcha!
