Learn how to mix the major and minor pentatonic scales - Guitar Lesson - EP130

What major pentatonic scales that could be used when leaving or going up and down the blues pentatonic scale?

Thanks you so much for this lesson. When you explain that the major pentatonic is only three frets down, there was going a world open for me.

thanks

Pal. You give very fun and thoughtful lessons
Talk all u want!!! Great 👍 lesson

Too much talking.

Just when I thought it would all click it didn't. Totally failed to explain, what and when to play the scales over the I, IV, V against the backing. Rrrrrgh

This guy is the best on the tube!

WOW! This is eye opening - THANK YOU Brian!

no amp is an interesting choice

Wow 28 minute, you are a olympic recordman. You could say the same things in 28 seconds LOL

Great video, very helpful and clarifying, thanks a lot!

Great lesson.. I'm a bassist trying to get into playing guitar. one of the FEW licks I have mixes Maj & min pent. I didn't know that.. it just sounded good to me. now I can build on it.. thanks for explaining it..

You helped a guitarist go over that monotony today. I almost gave up guitaring. Thanks.

So far the best learning channel 😊🤘

Thanks so much Brian , its like you have handed me the key i needed , Larry

The A note on the the D string,7th fret also overlaps and is not indicated on the diagram.

1. Draw the scales on paper
2. Put the drawings in a blender
3. Mix

How do you know what the major pentatonic will be. Like for minor pentatonic you would use the 6 of that key. So how would you find the major pentatonic of that key?

What must be stated clearly is that the Aminor pentatonic scale has Cmajor pentatonic as its RELATIVE major and vice versa. Same notes but different roots: A, C,D, E and G Or C,D, E, G and A! The relative minor to Amajor is actually F@, same notes different roots/starting points. It’s extremely important to understand the concept of RELATIVE major scales and minor scales. Hence one must know the number of sharps and flats in ALL the keys as we whizz around the fingerboard. Very important music theory!

👍👍🇩🇪vielen Dank

Another great lesson. Just learning to mix maj/min. Eye opening sound. Speaking of that, those eyeglasses age you 20 years...lol.

But what happens when you hit the 3rd notes which are different in major and minor. In this case f/f#

hi grerat fr johnb.

Who the fuck disliked this fucking musical morons, show yourselves,

Thanks for this great lesson. I just have one question. If you're playing say an Am Pentatonic scale and you drop down 3 frets are you then playing the relative which would be C Major or would you be playing the A Major Pentatonic?

hi. Now i understand how it works. minor > 3 frets = major. easy to undestand. thx a lot... like everytime, for all of Your videos i saw and you done. also what i wanne say... some of this y.t. "teachers" talk 17 miniutes in 20 min gitaur lesson. horrible. you explain and show it in the same time. well done !!! g from germany

I just realised that licks only be played on the GBE strings.

This lesson is GOLD !!!!!

Great lesson - learn something new every day

Fabulous lesson.

for example backing track is Am.% % %/DM % Am %/EM % AM % I should play only A pentatonic scales or combine with Dm and em ? or do you have some video on it ? thx

Best lesson I’ve seen yet showing how to mix major and minor pentatonic. Thanks Brian!

This is great, now I get how Lynyrd Skynyrd , Dicky Betts and Brian Setzer do it.

I started doing this with my instructor just last week. Thanks for covering this. I’ll go to Active Melody site. I am a member and it’s worth every penny.

Brian, this is an awakening 🙌

Another fabulous lesson.

Best lesson I’ve seen on mixing the two sounds!!!!

Thanks for this great lesson. I’m a bit bitter, that you published it now, not 50 years before. Then I would be now a world famous blues guitarist. This explained me things that knew, but didnt understand

You are a national treasure my friend.

Thank you

Anoth3r way to look qt it is knowing your relative minors. I look at that second position like its a C major, but knowing it shares the same notes as A minor.

Dude you remind me of jerry branch ours dallas great teacher and player

Would it not be more helpful to tun the guitar fretboard the other way round so that the bass strings are on top.

Hi Bryan, you're a great teacher but just one point - it may be helpful if you could give people the beat numbers as you play the licks. Thanks again

You are very good Brian. I look forward to supporting you officially soon.
