All this time I had no idea that position 1 of the major pentatonic was position 2 of the minor pentatonic scale, thanks for the clear explanation!

JJ never stops entertaining me, never waste mt time. Good job.

After watching this video I watched your video on the major scales. Wow. These are without a doubt the best videos I’ve ever seen on scales. Thank you so much for everything. I can’t describe how much this has taught me now.

This is exactly what i was looking for .:) thanks

I've been a casual player for over 25 years but could never wrap my head around scales. This video has finally made the concept hit home. I like the table of contents time markers to bring me to the next position. What I found especially helpful in this demonstration was how you bring the scales back down finishing out with the root chord. Thanks for the video. Nice work. Subscribed.

finally a lightbulb moment for me!! that warm feeling inside! Thanks a bunch!

Thank you for putting those time markers in the description. Very helpful.

Thanks. I like your guitar. Great tone. I was SO glad to hear a clean tone and not a distortion noise. Well done. I will be watching.

Good god this is the first video I've seen that helped! Thank you so much ! I'll be rewatching quite a few times !

Definitely subscribing. I really enjoy the way you break everything down. You go slow enough that I can understand.

Great Video! Thank you for the time-stamps as well, they really helped.

You're a genius! love your style man!

Thanks JJ ! Another fine video.

Great Lesson JJ! keep them coming!

Thank you JJ! You are a great player and a gifted teacher!

This was great, been searching for "guitar pentatonic scale patterns tab" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Vonizabeth Strumming Magnitude - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my work buddy got great results with it.

Thanks for breaking it down clearly....hard to find someone does this effectively

these tutorials are superb. thanks JJ :)

Great video! Well done! You made it easy to learn the lesson. Thank you for your time and knowledge.

Thanks Jj, great lesson. Nicely all together.👍 All the best, kind regards, Peter

Thank you. JJ, very clear, helped me a lot.

Thanks for the table of contents at the beginning! Super helpful. I found that a major pentatonic scale fits within a lydian overtone scale and it sounds hilariously awkward to jam with, while a lydian riff repeats for the rhythm track.

you are a great teacher! Thanks for this!

Great sir, now I can really understand between major and minor scales in every shape, thanks for your tutorial video, i hope many guitarist learned more about your videos. More Power and God Bless. Thank You Sir.

I really like your tutorial on the major pentatonic scale. What really helps me the most is the diagrams. Other gurus neglect to put diagrams or a picture of the notes that they're playing. Thanks ! notes

Such an informative video! Thanks so much!

Made simple. Thank You!

tnx man you really did a great job here!!!

Thank yo so much JJ! You explained this so well I've been trying to learn the Major Pentatonic for days and you really made it so simple for me to understand.

thanks so much for making another video... please make more videos in the future.. im learning alot from u sir thank u!

Great Lesson! Totally locked this in for me. Had my minor positions wired already. So the 1st position of Gmajor Pentatonic is the same pattern as Eminor 2nd position and so on....

great video. huge help. thank you

What a bloody good video lesson ...two thumbs up... thank you.....

Thanke you very much,mr. JJ! You are good teacher.Best regards.

Introduction - 0:38 Position 1 - 1:51 Position 2 - 3:32 Position 3 - 5:39 Position 4 - 7:21 Position 5 - 8:41 Moving up/down - 12:10

How’d you know?

I like this video it help me a lot how to play pentatonics.thank you.

Great lesson 👍

FYI When playing the positions and learning them it helps to go up 1 position move to the next and descend in that position... probably the best tip I can give when learning box patterns as after to learn them this way yo will be connecting the patterns across multiple strings with absolutely no thought and have it be essentially instinctual.

you're very helpful i didn't even know about that cirlce of fifths *mb*

tqvm bro .. very much knowledgeable ..

Great lesson

liked & subscribed. Good work

Thank you for what you do. I have diff. Seeing the finger pos. when you first introduce the note positions because your other fingers are in the way.

not that you suggested otherwise, but that's the way i always remember it. Great video thanks mucho!

Wow thank you

Thank uuu ❤️

Thank you

very good explain.. thank

Apologies , my bad!!! I confused myself Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much Tanis. (Subs)

very nice...thank u

Finally it makes sense

Mantap... keren

Very very helpful sir. The best I have learnt so far about pentatonic scales recently. I don't know if you also have pentatonic blue scale lessons? It will be interesting sir if you do. I want to learn that too

Great.

very good sir.

JJ, thanks for the great content! I may have had a mind-blowing (for me...) revelation, please confirm if I'm correct or delusional ;-) Here is my question: Instead of learning all 5 Maj Pentatonic scales would I be able to solo using the Minor Pentatonic in the relative minor key to the major key the song is being played in?? For instance, if a song is in A Major, could I just use the F#minor pentatonic scale and be ok?

Ty yes it is

@danielcoleman4807

You are correct. Any relative minor can be found by starting on the 6th note of a major scale. Example, C majors relative minor is A minor.

@danielcoleman4807

Having said that, C major scale sounds better for the key of C and A minor scale sounds better for songs in key of A minor. They have the relationship of Major to relative minor. Use the full scale with all 7 notes or the pentatonic scale. Works for both.

Great

its lit:)

I love music

Only took me 3 minutes to realize the chart is inverted on both the X and Y axis. Cool. Yes, I am 100% aware that 'high' E is traditionally on top. And that we go left to right, righter => higher frets. It's just also literally the inverse of the visual aid.

May i ask mr jj im a beginner and for instance i memorize your example gmajor scale with the 5 position does it fit in all music jam track ? Give me some idea and thanks really nice tutorials

Your lesson was by no means one of the best I’ve seen. However at the very end when you started matching pentatonic scale numbers to the keys for instance the key of a I got a little confused as to what Scale Number went with the keys. Could you please clarify that sometime or another. Thank you

happy notes

Note names are helpful but wouldn't it be more helpful to name scale degree names? I, II, III, V, VI, so when transposing you have a more immediate connection to the note's relationship to the key? So in the minor pentatonic it is I, 3b, 4, 5, 7b. I've only heard about this caged system in the last year. It is a cute learning aid. When I was taught originally I was taught the blues scale (minor pentatonic) and diatonic (do, re, mi...) scale. I then drew a map of the fret board up to the 12th fret. I can't remember now but I probably laid the E blues scale on the map marking each spot on each string up the neck. I probably used the C major scale for the diatonic scale. Then you can mark the three notes of the C major chord on that diatonic scale and see the caged chord shapes moving up the neck. It also helps see what the other scale degrees are and how they relate to the key. In the blues scale you can see all those little box shapes they teach but also see how they relate to each other and to the key. I don't remember it taking me that long to memorize those two patterns but at the time I was just fumbling around with my fingering so I could learn the two things together. Next you can see how the blues scale and diatonic scale are related. After that playing in any key is just a matter of shifting your pattern, keeping an awareness of the root (do) to help anchor the pattern in your mind.

Do 10 positions, major and minor pentatonic!

@13:16 if you start the scale at C (being so high up the fretboard already) at what fret do you restart it back at the beginning of the fretboard?

im sorry but i still dont get it i mean. i memorize all the shapes but i dont know how to apply it musically. i hope you have some tutorials about this. thamnk you by the way

memorization of shapes is just a tool - to apply musically think more melodically and not simply going up and down the scales

It’s all about how you phrase. Look for some tutorials on phrasing scales.

JJ...You're doing a good job showing where to find the notes. But it might be less confusing for some if you show the right pattern for each position. cheers.

Tabs are always shown that way

JJ TANIS, which guitar solos used the Major Pentatonic licks scale can you make a lesson showing a bunch of examples?

🤘

Does this mean that each Key as its specific pentatonic 5 shapes movable

So all these positions apply to other keys like A for instance you start at the 6th fret and work your way through the patter n if you wanna play the first pattern ?

Great video but your pictures of fingering are totally confusing is it reading left to right or otherwise? It seems upside down to all other tabs I've seen.

hey, this is G Major, right? thanks for the video, and especially for the marked times :)

Now i know the use of circle of fifths
