From Marty Music.
The Ultimate Guide to the Pentatonic on Guitar starts here!
If you’re trying to unlock the neck and actually use the pentatonic scale—not just memorize shapes—this video is the perfect place to start. I’ll break down the two most powerful pentatonic positions, how to connect them across the neck, and how to get the most mileage out of them right away. This is the exact method that helped me break through when I was learning how to solo.
