What about the flat 5 for the blues scale?

[@CharlieLongGuitar]

When you drop down 3 frets the b5 of the minor blues scale becomes the m3rd I’m the Major Blues scale. All the licks you’d use with the minor blues scale transfer and vice versa

[@44scoots]

Nice. But why not use the key of A, middle of the fret board, easier to see and understand IMO. Maybe because it wouldn’t sound as “shreddy “. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Good video.

[@stavies7525]

I've watched this brilliant video, just questioning my own knowledge here: Do you start and end the G minor pentatonic with a flattened B? I can't get past the idea of starting on root notes, slightly confused. I.e - starting that G minor pentatonic from G on the high E string. What am I doing wrong here? 🤣

[@nicolastoziat617]

Because everybody uses it? It’s not like that in real life playing

[@cockers6682]

Another great lesson you explain everything your doing being blind are can’t see what your doing but listening to you is great thank you for the effort you put into your lesson from Scotland

My pleasure and appreciate your support!!
