Hello! I’m brad from jamplay here.
I’d like to show you today of some licks. These are in the key of Gm. This would be a Gm blues scale.
These licks are like turn around licks, it sounds like a turn around.
I wanted to show these so that you can see how to use the open position. Actually it would be the last position of the pentatonic scale that it’s built from.
We’ll just start out with; take your 2nd and 3rd finger, hold it on the 3rd fret on the 1st and 2nd string. We’ll juts play that with a down stroke—

Leave your 3rd where it's at, take your 1st finger and put it on the 2nd fret on the 2nd string—
[Demonstration]
Play that—
[Demonstration]
Move it back down to the 1st fret and lay that—
[Demonstration]
Together, it sounds like this—

Then, I’m going to play it open on the 3rd string—
[Demonstration]
Then, I’m going to go to the 4th string 3rd fret and lay that—
[Demonstration]
