Danny Grady: This is an introduction to the Pentatonic Scale. Playing pentatonic scales over Blues progression is the way that most guitar players learn how to do lead and learn how to lead in prop and we will take a look at the very first and most common pentatonic scale that people learn. And a cool thing about this scale is that the minor root of the scale is done with your first finger here on the 6th string so this knob here being A at the 5th fret of the 6th string that would make A minor pentatonic. Now this form is completely movable, so if we were to take this in, for example, put it here on B and play the exact same form, well now you have got B minor pentatonic; very simple, very easy to do.
So let's take a look at how we would do this. We will start with our first finger here on the 5th fret of the 6th string, then 8th fret on the same string with your pinky, come down to the 5th string, we have got 5th fret, then 7th fret, come down to the 4th string, you have got 5th fret, then 7th fret, down here on the 3rd string, again, 5th fret and 7th fret, and then on the 2nd string, we now have 5th fret then 8th fret, you can use the pinky and then we have 5th fret and 8th fret on the 1st string.
So 5A, 57, 57, 57. At the second string, we go back to 5A and then 5A to get on the 1st string.
Scotty Moore: Hi! I am Scotty Moore. She came back and handed me this slip of paper and I looked at it and I said, "Elvis Presley what kind of damn name is that?"
Starting with the 1st fret across strings one and two at the 1st fret, second finger on the 2nd fret of the 3rd string so that's little part of an F chord there.
