In this week's video I'm talking about some different ways you can use the good ol' minor pentatonic scale. For those times when you might want to get away from the innate bluesy and classic rock flavour of this scale. Here's a link to the video -

And below I've tabbed out a few of the ideas and exercises I discuss in the lesson. 

Hope you find it interesting. 

Speak next week,

I just booked an appointment with my local tattoist to get "Blues Lawyer" inscribed on my fretting hand. Also petitioning my employer to change my job title to that as well. I freaking love it!

Scott Rees

Band name... Blues Lawyer...maybe not. What a great solo, waiting for the singer to come in.

Thanks Adrian - I love this kind of lesson with inspirational ideas that are easy to pick up and apply. I liked the double-stops - really opened up the scale with spacey sounds. I'm not quite a lawyer but I am guilty of being a blues paralegal - but now I have a plan for a jail-break.

haha, brilliant! I think a guitar with 'blues lawyer' in mother of pearl fretboard inlays would look cool.

Apparently that band name's already taken - just had a quick google! Glad you liked the solo Scott.

haha thanks Tristan. Blues paralegal doesn't have quite the same ring to it! Glad you liked this lesson

When I give my first public performance, I'll bill it as "Your Local Blues Lawyer: Pentatonic Licks So Generic, They Should Be Illegal."

Paul McDonough

Awesome Adrian! I loved the triads exercise, this looks like a beauty as well. Thanks!

Lauren

So good! I love the intro solo you played in this video. Any chance you'll tab it out for us?

Re-watched this vid. I found it doubly useful as a lot of what Adrian said makes sense in the context of the solo noodling on "Any colour you like" which is my 2nd fave track on DSOTM. Double stops, open strings and some larger interval jumps on the minor penta. After re-watching the vid in conjunction with the vid on mixing rythm and lead, the penny dropped it helped me have a go at replicating some parts of Gilmour's solo.
