In Lesson 1, we discussed the Major Pentatonic Scale. In this section, we will study the Minor Pentatonic Scale. For convenience, we will focus on the B Flat (Bb) Minor Pentatonic Scale as illustrated below:
A similar diagram of the scale:
Play the Bb Minor Pentatonic Scale on your guitar by starting with the "Bb" note on the sixth fret of your lower (or thicker) E string. The "Bb" note is encircled as follows:
Proceed by playing every succeeding note in the Bb Minor Pentatonic Scale right after the "Bb" note. Begin by playing the note on the guitar string (6th fret) which is numbered "1". Continue playing according to the order of numbers.
Familiarize yourself with the scale. Try repeating the exercise.
