But this is so much of the meat and potatoes of soloing in one simple lesson. Thank you! I’m forever grateful! Thanks for cutting through all the bullshit. You’re a badass.

[@JunkYour925]

Same here. After spending the last three years piecing all this different stuff together I came to this conclusion that Brian has confirmed. Thank you Brian. Here’s the kick in the ass though. Today was not the first time I came across this video. I saved it in my guitar lists long time ago and forgot about it then saw it now. I’m kicking myself. Oh well maybe it’s good to find your own way and then have an expert confirm your realization.

The lesson on the fourth pentatonic shape was the missing link for me. That solidified my understanding of the whole fretboard. I’ve had several teachers and No one has ever explained it like that. Thank you for your generosity and compassion.

[@zombieguitar]

Glad to hear it!

[@The-End-Of-The-Line]

Even this rapid overview of the 8 weeks is incredibly useful to me. It connected a lot of dots in my head. I especially liked the way you gradually build out the whole pentatonic scale from the first pattern to span the fretboard and then link in the major and minor scales. You are a great teacher Brian. Thank you for this.

[@hunterreed1010]

Bro...i will say it again...I've watched EVERY KZbin guitar "teacher"....YOU. ARE. THE. GREATEST. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE LESSONS!!!

[@gazzie12000]

As a guitar teacher, teaching for 40+ years, this is the best lesson structure I've ever seen for learning the guitar solo "roadmap". Hats off to you Brian, it's brilliant. Anyone watching who is interested in learning to solo and wondering where to start. DO THIS! If you follow each week's lesson as suggested it will transform your knowledge and soloing ability in only 2 months. It is a perfect framework for progressing onto other things, but even just learning this alone will enable you to solo over most music, and certainly any song staying in a single key.

[@zombieguitar]

Thanks for the words man. I really appreciate that! 😀

[@whitewalker608]

Actually, he taught you the entire Pentatonic layout on the entire fretboard without missing a single note and you didn't even notice. Yes, he completed all the pentatonic notes of a key on the entire fretboard. This is a really good video and he is a real great teacher.

As soon as you added the diatonic notes and went from major to minor a cog turned in my head I finally get it! And feel comfortable moving that scale extension around!!!

[@PlanktoniusRex]

This is fantastic. I have noodled around with the Pentatonic with the blue notes for a long time...like decades. I always wondered how it extended up and down the fretboard in key. I wondered if it was jumping keys or what. Now I see exactly what is going on. Pointing out the bending notes, the blue notes, extending the scale and adding the #4 position fills it all in. I have never seen the #4 so that will be a challenge as will be finding the chordal tones to accent. Wow is all I can say. Now I have weeks of practice ahead! Thank you so much for this.

[@oscariusgallileus8173]

I have played rythm for years and wanted to settle on solo but the solo journey has been far longer than all my practical guitar playing. I learned the pentatonic 1 and then struggled to get out from that position. I was lacking the foundation of the fretboard as described in this video. I gave up on shortcuts and went back learning all 5 positions major and minor. Even then my solos were sounding mechanical as I was lacking the extra notes. Now I know what was holding me back and the best is that I know where to add them. Same for bending. I grabbed my guitar right after this video and all sudden everything made sense. Great work. Last week I started with learning arpeggio shapes and again the concept is too blurry. I refuse to giving away another 3 years trying to figure it out. Can you please make a video like this one explaining the concept of arpeggio scales? Finally as u mentioned the upper and lower extensions of the position 1 are basically part of the next pentatonic pattern. One more week learning them allows students to know all pentatonic patterns and a much deeper understanding of solo.

This man deserves way more subscribers than what he currently have!!! Just great simplified and very easy to understand lessons for mere mortals like me!!! And by the way guys, don't skip the ads if you can, it might help him make more videos for us!!! Lastly; share his videos, the contents are just incredible!!!
