This Is The Trick To Soloing In Major Pentatonic - CAGED and Pentatonic The Secret To Killer Solos

[@Jake_the_Ging]

I learned about the CAGED System very early in my playing and I can say that it unlocked the fretboard and took my soloing to a new level in fact it established the foundations and capability of soloing for me. Great video thank you Mr. Papa!

[@BrettPapa]

Sure thing! CAGED is the key for sure.

@@BrettPapa Darn it. I thought I had more time to get the deal. I guess I miss out :(

[@gregm9506]

Great to see a shout out for Keith Scott. One of the most tasteful players of all time in my opinion. Guys like him and Mike Campbell don't get mentioned enough alongside the other greats. I also don't get the embarrassment some people have with saying they like Adams. I grew up on Bryans music and he's one of my absolute favourites. I went to see him and Keith last year and they were phenomenal. Bryans voice is holding up unbelievably well.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep I’m a huge Bryan Adam’s fan. Great tunes great playing. Mike is amazing too. Some of the best guitar parts ever.

[@alexholdenii4946]

Exactly what I’ve been working on. Love seeing different peoples views. Great info, thanks!

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks for tuning in!

[@jasonwilliamshuck]

i'm self-taught and naturally discovered this early on in my development. seeing chord clusters and triads all over the neck is a game changer and helps play more melodic lines. i don't have naturally dexterous hands and i'll never master it, but this is a GREAT video and help to me. thanks!

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@TomCPlus1]

That is the truth . . . Keith Scott is a rock solo god! You are so right BP. 🎸🎸🤘🤘

Yes sir!

Lol! Everyone says that. Been doing it for years and never had an incident.

That solo in the intro is so tasteful. Who are Bukovak, Pierce, and Trapp, besides my man Brett

[@BrettPapa]

lol! Thanks appreciate that.

[@davebauman]

World Most Expensive Lesson! Fantastic lesson, but…. Your tone is sickkkkkk!!! Now I need a Tele with TV Jones pick ups❤❤ Thanks… I think 😂

It's so good!!!!

[@embrandi]

Brett you are killing it. That Friedman and guitar sound great but your playing / feel has definitely been raised a notch or two.!! Can you share your ox box settings??

[@BrettPapa]

Thank ya! 412 Punch cab with a 57 and a 160 and the stereo condenser. Mic levels all to taste.

Thanks for the quick reply. Got the plex and a twin sister in the same week and I am in amp heaven!!

The intro solo melodies reminded me of “it’s all coming back to me now”

[@suedeface]

reminded me of "Listen To Your Heart"

[@mflee6590]

@@suedeface yes, I hear the “look into your eyes” line on the beginning

[@JiMMY-my1ds]

Keith Scott. Very appropriate guitarist.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure!

[@TomCPlus1]

And then there's the notes on the B string, my favorite for starting a solo. It's actually easy to remember the B string notes, because they go in the same order as piano white keys . . . C-1 . . . D-3 . . . E-5, followed by F-6 . . . G-8 . . . A-10 . . . and B-12th fret! That's my mental trick anyway.

[@BrettPapa]

Good trick! Never even thought of it that way! But it seems like it should be so obvious. I'm gonna steal that trick haha!

[@mariolapietra3237]

You have a beer by your Laptop or a latte macchiato? I love your lessons!

[@BrettPapa]

Latte. Was up real late haha.

[@motorcaster57]

I guess the limited time must be up??? I saw a course for $259 ???? But nonetheless you are a good teacher and you do a great job bringing guys like Tom and Guthrie over to your crib just to talk shop and play... Most inspirational...

[@BrettPapa]

Yep it's over. However jump on the email list. We have sales frequently. The membership has everything in it plus you will get an extra 25% off the new Guthrie and Tom courses coming out soon! Thanks for watching!

[@alexanderstoger2621]

hello Papa, that's a fantastic Tele 😀 Is this a thinline standard? Or a Vintage! I love your Videos🤘🤘

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks! It's a custom shop. I forget the name. It's a very strange name haha.

​@BrettPapa who makes that configuration with filtertrons and semi-hollow?

[@musicproductionvideos5019]

So there is a lot of videos about mixing major & minor... but that can only be used over like Dom7 chord vibes (Blues, Country etc). Is that correct? This type of progression is not really for that? Like regular rock type progressions with Major & Minor chords don't seem to work with that. Thanks! That guitar is a beauty!

[@BrettPapa]

No depending on the progression you can sneak that stuff in. Check out some of the mixing major and minor videos on the channel or if you want a deep dive I have an entire course breaking it down at brettpapa.com.

[@miguelalmeida4802]

nevermind the course - I’ll buy the cap

[@BrettPapa]

Haha! A place here in town called Herban Market sells them. You may be able to get one on the website. It’s an awesome hat. Had to have one!

[@michaelwade9199]

@@BrettPapa thanks for the video gave me some idea got for practicing.

[@simonsmith2642]

I always played by ear. Im self taught 35yrs now. It has worked fine so far, but I want to go back and learn what it is Ive been doing, why, and how it works, and open up what I can do. I dont regret going the hard way no lessons, hands on, it helped me find my own voice. But. I want to know now.. I learned a lot of what I was doing was relative minor, and using minor and major scale licks as well. But leaning heavy into relative minor. It has worked really well so far. Theres so much to learn. Im shocked how much I always thought I did wrong, but I was doing it right the whole time, and had no idea. Music is never ending… ✌🏻

[@BrettPapa]

Ear way doesn’t lie! There are lots of ways to doing it. Some of the very best players I know have no idea what they are doing.
