The octave jump is usually pretty easy to do since the fingering is essentially the same but playing the same lick in say position 3 or 4 of the pentatonic is definitely more difficult and you really have to sit down and figure out the fingering! And you're right, you get a different tone even if you play the same lick when say moving from strings 1 - 3 and playing the same notes on strings 4 - 6. It's a great concept to add some subtle variety to one's play without needing to come up with a new phrasing idea. Thanks Soeren! Ed
@@soerenguitarlessons9947 Yes indeed! Do you plan to take a break from uploading a video next week during Xmas? I may be out of town, I still haven't decided whether I want to travel. Fortunately, it would via car and not a plane! Have a great weekend. Ed
@@ew6629 I think I will upload next Friday too. I guess there must be quite a few that look on You Tube somewhere between Christmas and new year. I probably go to my sister Christmas evening, which is where we celebrate Christmas. It is just a half hour ride with the bus. Happy Christmas! Soeren
Talking about keys, this is a rare one for sure, but quite happy nonetheless, I can recall "Never make your move too soon" by BB King being in F too. Happy Holidays!
Hi Gerry. Thanks for commenting. And yes, the groove is maybe a little funky. It reminds me a little of the song "further on up the road. Happy holidays to you also. Soeren

Hi Ed! thanks for commenting. And yes, the middle turnaround needs a little practice before you can use it naturally. Wish you a nice Saturday, Soeren

@@soerenguitarlessons9947 Okay, great. If I leave town, I'll check it out after I return. You have a wonderful Christmas as well! Ed

Surely this is in F, not a shuffle in A? Great playing and informative lesson Soeren but the title needs adjusting.
Thanks for posting. 👍
Thanks for letting me know, Soeren
