In this video

In this lesson we're looking at a run that goes through 4 of the 5 Minor Pentatonic Shapes. Moving through the shapes this way helps us to move up the neck and keeps things more interesting than playing in a single shape.

Key points

  • Swapping from third finger to first finger on the same fret really helps us to move between positions
  • We can play this run faster using hammer-ons as well
