SC02 Major pentatonic scale from the 5th
Add to favorites 
Im playing over an AMaj7 chord, but using an E major pentatonic scale – ie playing a major pentatonic scale from the 5th (E) of the A major scale. This gives a more hip modern sound – not playing the root (A) and emphasizing the Maj7th, 6 th and 9th – E major pentatonic scale (E F# G# B C#) translates to the (Key of A) 5th, Major 6th, Major 7th, 9th and Major 3rd.

: Hi MDK, Wow waht a great DVD... just spent a few hours learning the first few lessons... great quality and well taught... I'm very pleased with my purchase. If any improvment could be made I would only say could there be a 'repeat' funcion so that you can get a lick to play continually? or what aboutt a not showingthe BPM so that we can use the correct tempo using the drum patterns... overall a wonderful job... I look forward to more downloads in the future.... especially for IPad
