    Default E Minor Pentatonic Lesson

    This lesson covers the First Position of the E Minor Pentatonic, or Box 1, as it is sometimes referred to.

    I show you how to do a cool run too, by using a repetitive pattern.

    I'm hoping this lesson will be useful for both beginners, intermediate and more advanced players, since playing that pattern fast requires a high amount of control.

    Thanks! The tone comes from a Jet City 20 head and cab - no pedal used except for a DD-20 delay pedal,

    You make the neck look like butter!
    I wish I could do that

    Anyway, I've been trying that scale since yesterday, and I'm making better licks each time I try it. I've been an on and off player for 1 year, and I hope this will help me.

    Keep the videos coming
