I am 64 years old and I used to play lead guitar in many bands but I never learned the pentatonic scales! My next door neighbor told me about the pentatonic scales when I was 16 but he did not tell me what it meant!! You are the first person out of all the videos I have watched on how to play the pentatonic scale that allowed me to see what is being played. They would go fast and play it and not show how!! Thank you very much for being the first person in my life to show me in a way I could really see what is played. I became a really good lead player but memorized different Hendrix licks and basically played box style leads!! I always felt handicapped though when I would hear other guitarists play the scales and sound so good. My playing took longer to make it sound really good because of lacking the pentatonic scale. At 64 I can still play fast clean leads but now a whole new spectrum can be implemented!! Thanks again!! If any one wants to see me play my KZbin video is keebonk’s shower curtain jam. I titled it that because I recorded the video in my bathroom. Only place I could be alone to do it!!

Here we go again! I spent an hour last night watching a ton of videos trying to learn about key and what it all means. I came out of it mostly more confused and definitely more frustrated. In walks Scott and 3 minutes and 30 seconds into a video on the pentatonic scale the lights pop on and I finally get something about keys that never clicked before. Of course, the pentatonic scale also makes way more sense and feels much more practical now, too! I've now watched two of Scott's videos and in a matter of minutes have learned more than hours and hours of other guitar videos and books. Thanks Scott! Can't wait to watch the next one! Let me add: the split camera views, text, and graphics are a HUGE help for me, being a visual learner and beginner. It's obvious you know something about learning styles, given that you are crushing verbal, written, and visualized in one simple video. I know that can't be easy or fast to do but I'm so grateful you have been able to do it so far. Thanks!

This is literally as simple as you can make it. You made it so crazy simple and it's crazy how hard it can be for many youtubers to "simplify" things to this easy of an instruction. It's quite literally 1. If you wanna play an Aminor scale start with your pointer finger at the a key 2. If you wanna play an A major start with your pinky at the A key. After that all you have to do is learn the scales and how they move around on the fretboard. Insane.

Maaan, you are THE KING of explaining things in plain English without any BS and making perfect visuals that go with the explanation. Since SPJ never asks for it I'll do it instead - please don't forget to like the video AND subscribe as your appreciation for the effort! Cheers! Keep up the good stuff

From a 60yo female campfire Strummer, I'm just getting started on lead, my fingers are slow so I'm still working on getting a bit faster. What I like about this video is its set at a great pace, and very little vibrato and string bending to distract from the actual point of the lesson. Bravo.

You’re awsome, I’ve mastered finger style through tab but never understood how keys, or pentatonic scales worked until you, your a life saver man, honestly. ROCK ON! 🎸

I finally understand!!! I’m 57 and have been teaching myself for less than a year. I was getting so frustrated, that I was ready to give up. Thank you so much for this explanation, it has changed everything for me!

It's because he actually wants us to learn. He's not gate keeping it or trying to appear a genius-- and because such, he shows how genius he is! Hell yeah dude.
