Dude, thanks for picking up on this!! Very cool. To give you a bit more real life usage, over ii, V, I: ** ii chord: start pentatonic minor on the 5 of the chord (Am7, play Em pentatonic) ** V chord: start pentatonic minor a minor 3rd up from root note of chord (D7, play Fm pentatonic) ** I chord: start pentatonic minor 1/2 step below root of chord (G, play F#m pentatonic) ** (BONUS) VI turnaround chord: start pentatonic minor a 3rd above root of chord (E7, play Gm pentatonic) As you can see, the pentatonic minor scale moves up a fret each time the chords changes. This helped me learn jazz. For the altered pentatonic (you can play a lot of SRV stuff this way): ** ii chord: start altered pentatonic on root note of the chord (Am, play Am altered pentatonic) ** V chord: play the exact same lick a minor 3rd up from last line, which is also a whole step down from root of V chord (D7, play C altered pentatonic) Good luck, everyone, it's easy to grasp this with some practice!!

Pentatonic minor a half-step below M7 chord = Lydian :)

Excellent as always but for a second I didn't recognise you without your Dunlop Purple Sharp pick!

Haha, that's amazing you noticed! I'm trying the Dunlop Tortex Pitch Black 1.14 - slightly more rounded edge. I'm liking it so far!

@@beneunson You are so uniquely skilled that it wouldn't matter what pick you are using but I must tell you that if you go back to the purple sharps, I will notice...haha!

My 'trick' is to treat the pentatonic as a 2 string pattern.

Great suggestion! Thanks for watching

Wow that guitar sounds beautiful, Ben! Is it semi-acoustic or fully hollow?
@basildog0076 ай бұрын
If I remember correctly, this one with the smaller body is fully hollow. 90% sure
@beneunson6 ай бұрын
Yes you're right, it's fully hollow! Thanks for watching!

basically the chromatic pentatonic approach on a II V I. Say for example dm7 g7alt and cmaj7(how original). on dm7 you play a minor pentatonic, on G7 Bb pentatonic and on Cmaj7 you play B pentatonic.

That's definitely a great approach!
