    OPEN G TUNING: D G D G B D
    A smart way to learn your scales is up and down one string. You'll see, hear and feel the intervals that you need to play in that scale. This works perfectly for slide guitar since you'll be moving up and down the neck connecting notes with the slide.
    Give this method for learning the minor pentatonic scale in Open G Tuning a shot in your next practice session and try to tackle the fun lick in the video!
    Good luck and...
    Play On!

    I love the open G tuning, gut recently I've been lowering the second string to B flat for open G minor. Also makes the G minor pentatonic scale easier on that string since you can start from open B flat.

    Been playing slide (keyword: playing lol) for over 10 years, guitar for about 20.
    That being said, I do believe I just got yanked out of a major slide rut by some guy that laughs like he's in on something we're not or maybe just a little nervous on camera, although God knows Why, with playing like this. 🤘🏻
    You make that resonator Reeeally resonate lol
    And thx for the yank
    outta my rut 🤙🏻

    Great lesson, thanks! One question: do you forget about scale 'boxes' all together playing in open tunings? So only horizontal scales?

    • @BluesGuitarInstitute
      @BluesGuitarInstitute  Рік тому

      good question. No, you will still play the scale and/or chord tones in position across the strings but in open g/open d the boxes are quite different. I did a lesson recently on "hot spots" for open tunings that simplifies the "vertical" positional playing but it's really based on the scale/chord tones in that position. hope that helps. very good question. Cheers!

    Love your lessons and I just picked up the same guitar GT PBS Deluxe. However, buying this guitar used, I got a huge bonus, the guitar had a bridge pickup! Is this normal or is this an add on aftermarket?

    • @BluesGuitarInstitute
      @BluesGuitarInstitute  Місяць тому

      I'm not sure about that. I bought mine used too but no pickup and no signs that there ever was one. I don't think I remember a pickup in the specs on Gold Tone's site but it's been a while since I looked. Nice bonus! I do love the sound of an amp'd resonator.

    Why play Gm pentatonic over G (major)? Surely you would play Em pentatonic?

    • @BluesGuitarInstitute
      @BluesGuitarInstitute  Рік тому +1

      There's alot of mixing major and minor in the blues. Em pentatonic would be the Gmajor pentatonic scale and would sound nice too but has a different character.

      Just because the guitar is tuned to open G, doesn't mean that's the only key to play in.
