Tired of Box Pentatonics? Try This Instead

If you are stuck in the same old pentatonic box shapes, the 3 notes per string pentatonic system will completely change how you play and how fast you can pick. You will be obliged to be more accurate, to select your notes carefully. But in rewards, these pentatonics still sound wide and original. In this lesson, I show you how to restructure the pentatonic scale into 3 notes per string patterns and apply the picking technique. Then you can decide for yourself if you can use it with other techniques too! This approach breaks you out of the standard 2-note-per-string boxes and opens up new possibilities for alternate picking, legato, and shred runs using the pentatonic scale. ----------- About this channel: My name is Ignazio, but everyone calls me Iggy.
