Universal pentatonic pattern, as simple as it gets. If you just want to start soloing across the fretboard without getting mixed up in different scale positions, try this simple pattern in any key, just pick your root. It not only works for major and minor scale, but also for relative chords (you can use A major for F# minor, and vice versa). Download it on your device and try it next time you practice guitar, and big thanks for following, the family is growing!

I Just dropped a new lesson that I think you’re really going to dig. Something very familiar with a twist. It’s all about adding chromatic notes to the pentatonic scale - a simple but powerful way to bring new flavor, movement, and tension to your solos. And I don't mean "Just add the blue notes" - adding the full chromatic range creates a completely new dimension! Especially if you're playing the b-shape pentatonic pattern across the fretboard. Whether you’re improvising or writing, this...
"Shine" by Collective Soul, with the phrase "let your light shine" is a metaphor for living a righteous life that illuminates the world around you. This song is not a religious one, but it is there to bring peace and call upon our inner power. It helps the ones in trouble, it helps me now, after my dad passed away last month, and I know he would want me to go back to my music, and shine even brighter. It hasn't been easy but here I am, thanking God and the Universe every day that I'm here,...
