    OMG Marty - I just saw Dead & Company and decided to learn “Going Down The Road Feeling Bad.” I figured I needed some major pentatonic review and this was the first video I pulled up! One of those things….

    Just want to say thanks Marty, I got your courses when I bought the Swatzernator overdrive pedal, I have gone through them all a few times and dude, I understand so much more of the guitar, my friends are amazed with how much I've improved, I am the guitarist/singer in a 3 piece. When people ask me about guitarists I love, it's Jimmy Paige, Jimi Hendrix, and Marty Swartz, thank you dude,

    This has really helped. After over 30 years of playing, I've always struggled with the major pentatonic. Give me a Dorian chord progression to noodle with, I'm fine. Anything major pentatonic was always a problem (don't know why). Not any more!

    Sooo, if you're in key of E....no matter the chords playing, you can solo simply in the E major scale??? In other words, over the A chord, you can still solo in E maj pentatonic?

    Hello Marty, How do you remember the timing of licks when playing such melodies ? Do you count in your mind as 1, 2, 3, 4 when playing licks OR do you only concentrate on the melody and just play ?

    • @kingloser4198

      @@RameshKumar-ng3nf My advice is get rhythm guitar sorted and then introduce very simple couple of notes. Also away from the guitar and counting along to songs. Start simple at first I'd say. There are quite a few ways to count songs based upon lots of things. Once you learn it you'll feel like your reading the Matrix code with ease. Practice makes perfect as they say.
