In this lesson we're looking at Shape 3 of the Minor Pentatonic scale. This one's a little bit of an odd shape, in that it's almost totally confined to 2 frets except for 2 notes that stick out above and below on the 2nd and 3rd strings.
Key points
- Move up 3 positions on the 6th string from the 5th fret to find this shape
- Remember the little guy going "Yay!"
