      You should check it out, as it will inform you what is most current.
      I think most players don't want to bury their head into a book only, and including videos, esp with your concise graphics, with shine above others

    I think the last few seconds were golden. 1, 4, 5. Find key or move up to a new key with just those notes and find chords either using those notes as the root or the same chords anywhere on neck. This means, at least to me, I need to either memorize my chords better, or find a key, figure out scale progression, find chords through research, write it down, commit it to memory, and practice like hell!

      It is! And actually is a slight graphical error on my part... as a triad it should be a simple diminished shape but as a 4 note voicing it should be a min7b5 chord.

    Great video. Fantastic to follow and diagrams help. Sorry if this is a silly question - but is there a similar way of identifying or a rule of what chords apply to a minor or major pentatonic scale? (e.g. Major, Minor, Minor, Major, Major, Minor, Diminished, as in the major scale?)

    • @Samjamguitar
      @Samjamguitar  Місяць тому +1

      The minor pentatonic scale is the natural minor scale with 2 notes removed. The major pentatonic scale is the major scale scale with 2 notes removed. You can use the minor pentatonic scale over chords in a minor key and you can use the major pentatonic over chords in a major key! It's all the same👍
