NOTE: Some people call this the "# 1" minor pentatonic
scale and some others refer
to it as the "#2" minor pentatonic scale. I don't care what you call it
as long as you understand that I am calling this the "1,6" minor pentatonic
scale to indicate that the ROOT TO THE SCALE IS FOUND UNDER THE FIRST FINGER
AT THE SIXTH STRING, ie. THE 1,6 minor pentatonic scale.
DIRECTIONS:
We will start with the lowest SOUNDING note of the scale and play up
to the highest SOUNDING note and then back down to the original note for
this particular exercise.
OK, got your fingers lined up to the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th frets? For
now, keep your thumb arched and below the neck. Use your finger tips to
play each note.
As you place your finger on the desired fret and string play the string
with your right hand using either a pick, your thumb or one of your fingers.
Remember, each string will produce two separately played notes. First play
the note under one finger and then play the note under the next before
moving on to the next string.
Play only one note at a time, as follows:
