A fun sound I’ve been messing with is playing the minor pentatonic off the 2 when a chord comes from a melodic minor key. So C-7b5 exists as the 6 chord in Eb Mel minor so you can use F-pent to play over that chord or any chord that comes from that key.

In the video, somebody asked about Eric Johnson sounding Pentatonics. Try this: instead of doing those fast sextuplet descending runs in Pentatonic boxes #1 and #4, try them in boxes #5 and #3, respectively. Say you're in E minor. The run would go from a G on the high E string to the open G an octave below, so G - E - D - B - A - G. Notice that every note you pull off "to" is from the E minor triad. Using Pentatonic Box #5, you get the notes E - D - B - A - G - E. This time the notes you pull off "from" are from the minor triad, and this has different sound.

Hey Rick, thanks for this great lesson! some stuffs are confusing me a little, i’ll try to make it clear, please correct me if i’m wrong... On a major chord you can play major pentatonics based on the 1,4,5 because it gives you all the notes of the major scale... (same for minor by the way) In your exemple, you suggest to play major pentatonics based on 1,2,5 so it gives you A lydian which have same notes as E major so you can apply the 1,4,5 on the E scale and it gives you the 1,2,5 you suggest on A. I guess if you want to play on a A dominant chord you can choose more like a mixolydien sound so A mixolydien contains the same notes as D major, you apply the 1,4,5 to D and it gives you D,G,A so 1,4,7 in A... Am i correct?

Seems to me that with all these numerous options there isnt much more left NOT to play... and sound good/interesting Came to the conclusion it all belongs to your ear and maybe ability to „feel good“ with certain sounds. As miles used to say: there are no wrong notes, only the wrong time to play them. At the end of the da , as you said, when creating all this tension you have to bring it back home at some point unless its just meandering around havin no goal nor target.

Rick, in your 1st example can you not use the major pentatonic based of the 4th (D in this case)? That gives you the Ionian sound. Obviously not the G Major since that gives you the Mixolydian which contradicts the maj7 in the 6/9 chord. I know you favour the brighter Lydian but still worth a mention.
@djwiens5 жыл бұрын
My guess is that the D that's present in the D Pentatonic would clash with the 3 (C#) of the A chord creating a weird minor 9th interval. You're correct that if the chords are changing (like going to the ii chord) the IV pentatonic becomes very useful, but over a static I Maj7 chord, it's not a very good sound.

Rick, I super appreciate you, and also I often feel that you gloss over little steps in your lessons which are likely evident to an advanced player but their absence leaves me scratching my head. I don’t have the book yet, so probably that fills in the gaps. I’m 8 minutes in trying to understand how it is that the 2nd and the 3rd both can work with the major pentatonic scales and triads when these are characterized as being minor modes? As always, I jump in figuring these are master classes after all. Hopefully I someday access all the missing pieces. Those of you who have the book,… are things explained a bit more thoroughly there?
@JESL_TheOnlyOne2 жыл бұрын
You need to be a tad more precise in how you're posing the question, but if I understand you correctly, one answer is (in A): The forms starting with A are obvious. E is a fifth up, which is an indicator of consonances, so it's not hard; F# and G# are both in A and the major pentatonic and triad are diatonic. The B triad and B major (keep maj/min straight) pentatonic use a sharpened fourth in A (D#), BUT...I'm far from an expert, but you can live with the 'virtual tritone', because: Tritones are not as dissonant as some claim; Just one chromaticism isn't a deal breaker; It's probably going to be a passing note, anyway, so... Just an educated guess.
