Looking forwarding to learning.....would like to learn the box technique for scales tha friend told me existed for lead work....anyone familiar with how this works?

Godro- Yes, I believe your friend is referring to the Pentatonic Scale patterns which are usually shown as a "box' diagram. There are 5 patterns which are numbered 1,2,3,5,6 on this site because there is no 4th note in the Pentatonic (five note) scale. Other sites just use 1-5. You must learn all of them or it's worthless in my book.

There is an excellent lession here on TG on the Pentatonic scales. These scales are the backbone of modern music, especially rock, and should be learned by all guitarists!

Good luck and let us know if we can help!

Cheers! :cheer:
