He wrote music theory lesson and he wrote what is the pentatonic scale not the shape. Showing you the shapes isnt music theory as the title suggests.

I’m only a few minutes into the video and I already think this is a necessary video for me to watch. Coz in as much as I love to practice , I also wanna understand it. Understanding what you’re doing and how stuff works sometimes unlocks something I can’t describe in the brain as your brain understand a little bit of what it’s doing.

so, let me ask again. What is pentatonic scale?

Thank you

newbie here, do you apply the formulas to any note scale and they will make the major and minor pentatonic? or do those formulas only apply to the D scale?

@yga

Жыл бұрын

Hi Aaron, you can apply the formula to any major scale to get the pentatonic notes for that key. This means the distances between notes are always the same, which means particular scales always have the same sound/feel. This video is part of a series, but that's not always clear on YT, so if you've missed the first videos in the series it's worth going back and checking them out here club.yourguitaracademy.com/theory-exercises

Why do most guitar teachers teach scales in keys that are not C or G major? C uses all natural notes and G is a very common campfire key that uses easy open chords.

@yga

Hey Brian, I cannot speak for other guitar tutors but for this lesson we are teaching more the concept of the the scale rather than how to play it on the guitar and using a scale with more sharps allows you too see how regardless of sharps or flats the foundations of the scale remain the same :)

Finally, a Teacher that teaches. I finally understood Pentatonic Scales! You show facts in a simple direct way and most importantly, you tell us Why use it, When to use it. Most teachers simply dwell in the structure of a scale and Never tell us Why or When use a certain scale. Thank you very much!!

Question. Every note can be duplicated so why move up the neck when you can just move down a string? Is it pointless to move up the neck?

Good question Josh, It really depends on where you want to end what you're about to play and what would be the easiest way for your fingers to navigate the fretboard to get there! Hope this answers your question :)

Because of tone, different strings have different tone

He gave it to you. he suggested why in the world we have pentatonic scales, since all the notes in them already exist in Major and Minor. And specifically which 2 notes and why shall fall off of Major and Minor and that's already a lot of info. Namely, in the Major scale, the notes that could be mistaken easiest - the notes with half step distance between them - 3rd and 4th and 7th and 8th. And since 8th is also 1st - the root - I could tell you that is the 7th that goes out. For the other note that goes out we have to see the next video. (((-:
