Do you struggle over the chord changes when soloing? Let me know if this lesson was helpful! Here is a link for the backing track to practice these fun soloing concepts. th-cam.com/video/uMbnRaRpZi4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VItTgPnFAN42lWzi👍
I swear that sneaky Rusty has been off practicing even more!! Get this lesson down and start to become fearless when you're called on for your turn to solo!! Thanks again, buddy!! Jim C.
Great lesson once again. It looks like you change the pentatonic scale with each chord. I thought one stays in the same scale but just targets the notes , like 1, 3 and 5 of the new chords. I’m a beginner and trying to better understand how soloing works.
Hey Scooby, for me I’m still looking at the E minor Pentatonic scale. But then, looking at that five note shape to outline the sound of each chord. There is no right or wrong way to do it. It’s what works best for you to visualize it and sound musical. I appreciate all your support to my channel. And thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Let’s talk soon.👍
Excellent tutorial Rusty.........some beautiful phrasing being played in this lesson........you have a great way of taking the mystery out of lead guitar phrasing ........well done sir........Paul from Ireland
Hey Paul, i’m glad you got some thing from the lesson. It’s always good to hear from you. Your continued support means a lot, buddy. Have a great weekend. Thanks.👍
Rusty, you're site is full of practical tips that help me better use what I already know. The fact that you always link the backing track makes your lessons more user friendly than many others. You are a great teacher, I appreciate you.
Hi Rusty my guitar teaching guru 🎉 another good lesson, highlighting the chord extensions from the penta, it is great fun once these connect in your mind and gets you moving around the fretboard, you have something bro 💙 even your explanation of what you are doing is happy sounding and you are enjoying making this easier for guys like me, doesn't matter how much I think I know ! I always learn something from you Rusty and even if I know what you are telling, it's still enjoyable and makes me happy 😊😁 these are gold 🥇 my friend and thank you again im grateful guys like you are around you should be sainted bro lol 😂❤❤❤❤
Comments like this really keep me motivated Alan!!! I’m happy to hear that you’re getting something from the video lessons! Thank you for your continued support of my channel. We will keep working on this stuff together 🤛
@rustysguitar1 you betcha Rusty and I can't wait sir, I keenly watch anything you post coming up on my feeds and I use a few teachers but they dont have your way of getting things across and being understanding, if more early players saw these things would be so much easier for them and enjoyable. Keep them coming bro 💙
Good morning brother Rusty that is a challenging exercise but I find myself having fun doing it. Thanks for the video and thanks for your time. God bless.🙏🏽
Good morning to you also Harold! Thanks so much for your feedback. I know it’s challenging, but I’m glad you’re having fun with it. See you soon, my brother.🙏
Hey Craig, I’m so glad you’d liked the lesson. And it’s very exciting to get those lightbulb moments. Thanks so much and I appreciate all your support of my channel.👍
Hey Rusty, how are you my friend? Great tutorial buddy, this is really making a lot of sense to me, thanks mate 👍🏻 you and your family have a great weekend 👍🏻🏴🎸
I’m doing well, Dave! Good to hear from you. Yes, this is a great foundation that we can easily expand on for blues improvising. Thanks buddy and I hope you and your family have a great weekend also! 👍🤛✌️
That simple structure is really powerful so thanks for sharing. I use it of course but didn’t think about moving it brother neck with the chord changes 😊
Really love your teaching Rusty, and as always, you are so generous with your time. It's like your sitting with us in the same room going through ideas that you know we need to get better at! Thank you!
At first, I thought this was going to be a negative comment 😂 But it turns out to be a great positive comment and I really appreciate it.😎 thanks so much, Clive. Hope to see you soon.🤛
Rusty, your guitar lessons are some of the best on the internet as they are clear, precise and you don't hold back on information! And it's obvious that you are a very good guitarist!
It's been a little while since I spent some time with you, but this was a terrific lesson. And thanks for the link to the backing track--it's real good practice for me. I'll revisit this lesson a few times!
It’s good to hear from you! I hope all is well. I’m glad you got something from the lesson. I hope you have fun with it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Thanks.👍
Dear Rusty, I just ordered my first electric for a very long time, I have two acoustic in sight but am excited to get my new electric and have some fun 👍
That’s so exciting Paul! That Guitar will open up the whole new world for you. Let me know if you have any questions. I’m always here. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.👍
Cool lesson and even though I was aware of these positions and have used them I honestly never thought of using it on the five chord maybe because it goes by pretty quickly too so sometimes it's easier to just do a simple turnaround or even a walkup ( or walkdown ) around a B note but I'll certainly start trying it out, as always thanks for your time Rusty :)
If you were to choose only one of your vids to show going down the minor pentatonic scale diagonally to the chords/root notes and some minor blues licks for the different root positions which vid would that be? Sliding to the minor 3rd for the major pentatonic scale makes sense and moves you down the fretboard. I am wondering if sliding to the 3rd position in the minor pentatonic scale will work. I'm trying to see how to use the diagonal with going to the 3rd position to move down the fret board. And I don't know if I can do both or which is the best one to use. I have the concepts now I just need to figure out how to use the two methods and whether I can use both at the same time. I hope this makes sense.
I have many videos that I’ve used the extended pentatonic scale, but this is one of the most popular ones. th-cam.com/video/SJnOZpvSbM8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=L7onBi-0DUL2WBId I hope you get something from the video. Thanks a lot for all your support.👍
@@rustysguitar1 Thanks. I have that vid on my list of favorites of yours. I will indeed review it until I have all of the movements down pat. I have all of your concepts down I just wanted to save time to narrow the best of your podcasts to practice. Cheers.
Just wondering when the chord display changes from A7 to E7 around 10:36: I know it works there for A7, but why does it also work for E7 there? Five chords and one chords always can work together? Thanks!
I’m glad you asked that question. The notes in that shape outline the A7 chord but are also those same notes are part of the E major pentatonic scale. That’s why that shape works over both chords. Thanks so much for checking out the video. Let’s talk soon.👍
Hey Scooby, in this video, I was using that box shape to follow the chords. Whether you use arpeggio’s, triads, or scales it’s about targeting notes with the chord as they go by in the progression. Not an easy task. It’s something that I practice on every every day myself. Thanks for checking out the video, bud.👍
Figuring out that tonal center to do solo is challenging and nerve racking in front of an audience. That's why I am just content on doing rhythm strums
For me, I just look at the first chord. If it’s a minor chord, I start with the minor pentatonic of that first chord. If it’s major, I use the major pentatonic. That’s a great place to start and then I go from there. Also, as you strum the cords just getting little fills in between. It’s a great way to get some confidence. Thanks so much for checking out my videos and let’s talk soon. 👍

Thanks a lot Bert!!! I’m doing well. I hope you are also. See ya soon brother 👍
Ive heard that shape called the 'house of blues'. Helps me remember it😂
I have heard that also. It’s like we’re moving the house up and down the neighborhood 👍
Good lesson. Do you follow the chords using arpeggios or stick in the same pentatonic scale?
Hey Scooby, in this video, I was using that box shape to follow the chords. Whether you use arpeggio’s, triads, or scales it’s about targeting notes with the chord as they go by in the progression.
