Re:Another question about Pentatonic scales
<t>Well, then, that's what I will be doing from now on then. Alternate picking. One other problem that I have been having is with my E chord, because I seem to be muting my B string. I have never noticed this before, but much of my practice had been with a Yamaha Silent steel string, and it's set up...

Re:Another question about Pentatonic scales
<t>Could I ask one more question?<br/> <br/> Should I be practicing my pentatonic scales with alternating picking strokes? Until now, I have been using down strokes, but I have found that it will be hard to increase my speed very much, so I am now trying alternate picking, but I miss the right strin...

Re:Another question about Pentatonic scales

I don't have a clue how the imprvising stuff works, but I figure if I just learn these patterns forward and backward, It can't help but make it all make sense later on. <br/> I also wish I could get my guitar t...

Re:Another question about Pentatonic scales

Re:Another question about Pentatonic scales
WOW, Thanks!
I think I see what's going on. It's actually a map to the notes linking each other along the board, Right? I will have to learn each key.

Another question about Pentatonic scales
<r>I was frustrated with the Key of A pentatonic scales, but now play them cleanly after much practice. Now I was wondering this. What other Pentatonic patterns should I be practicing. Here is the link to the youtube lesson I was watching. I want to learn exactly what he is showing. It is truly a be...

Re:Trouble picking during Pentatonic scales
Okay, thanks, I will keep practicing the way I have been as it sounds like I'm on the right track. It just gets frustrating sometimes.
