Pentatonics!

So I've been dabbling a lot in Pentatonic Scales lately. Prepping for some Solo-ing action! Wewt!

So far, I've been tinkering with the minor scales. I spent Saturday night playing with it (yes I lack social life) practicing it (even while watching F1 - go Ferrari!).

So as a result of that session, I have mastered 4 boxes of the minor pentatonic scales (I can blast thru them now).

Minor Pentatonic Scales

I just have to learn the final box (the right most pair) and I will be done with the Minor Scales. I think I've made strides. Fingers are a lot faster now in moving around. :)

I incorporate scales into my warm up and finger exercise regiments (paired with picking exercises).

I hope to get good as fast as I can by working and practicing as hard as I can (though not too hard so I will not get a repeat performance of my tendinitis).

I will keep at it some more and master the Major scales. After that, onwards to Modes!

Muahaha. Heading down the path of shredding!
