I have watched this multiple times. I can’t tell you how valuable this is. A perfect explanation that makes sense and opens up endless possibilities. Extremely well presented in voice, visuals and pacing. As good as it gets. Thank you very much.
I can't believe it! It's like finding the holy grail of guitar instructional videos. This is the video I was hoping for when I clicked on the last 50,000 TH-cam guitar videos! I just bought the cheat sheet pack and now I'm ready to stop "searching" and start "working". Thank you Keith!
I’ve been playing the guitar for 30 years, and this lesson has completely changed how I understand the geometry of the fretboard. Absolute breakthrough moment. The scale forms we memorize are “true”, but they’re derived from the underlying pattern!
It’s already changed how I approach improvisation. Instead of thinking, which form do I need to use?, I just find the first root that I want to center the melody around and use the stack+rectangle to move around it. It’s so simple, and it ends up sounding so much better. This lesson was a massively important moment in my musical journey.
Holy crap…someone give this man a medal or some kind of award! This is gold! Something you maybe want to point out in your videos that you kind of skip over is how your shifting up and down takes advantage of the fact that the top and bottom strings are both E strings, and will therefore always have the same “pattern” on them and that is how you can “fill in” the notes as you shift a pattern up or down. That took me a second to figure out.
Thanks! That’s definitely a good point for 6-string guitar. I’m always thinking of how the method applies to 4-, 5-, and 6-string bass and 7- and 8-string guitars, where that doesn’t work, but it’s definitely something most of us can use 🎸🧪🤘
@@fretscience Yes, this works great with the 4-string bass as there is no warp. There was a video floating around that did something like this, but with 3 shapes.

Huge lightbulb moment from this video Sir. Absolutely fantastic lesson, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Best explanation ive heard to connect the dots with root notes rather than memorising large patterns and a great insight on how to play specific notes to make improvisation sound a lot more musical!.
Without hyperbole, this is probably one of the most helpful guitar videos I've ever watched. I've been playing since 1991, but have always been stuck in memorizing the five positions. Playing in E or A has always been easy, as I use those most often and have them memorized. But get outside of those two and I'm struggling to overlay the boxes in the new positions. This lesson, however, has absolutely broken it wide open. THANK YOU! And I have purchased your PDF bundle as a way of saying thanks,

Brilliant! I've been studying guitar for a little over 2 years now and your approach to the shapes of the pentatonic scales is finally getting me over that hurdle of being able to visualize all of this information all over the fretboard while I'm playing. Thank you! It's just so good. On top of that, you've given me a whole new way to travel horizontally ("the other diagonal") that I've not seen or heard mentioned anywhere else. I'm really looking forward to jamming with that pattern to find out all the goodies hidden therein. Huge thank you for making this material available. You're on to something very powerful here. Please keep going and please keep sharing. You're helping to fill the world with beautiful music. A worthy endeavor indeed!
Ok, this is positively brilliant. There are about a million videos out there on the "five positions," the "pentatonic equator," and on and on and on, and those are fine (or at least a lot of them are). But this is UNIQUE - you broken things down into a more fundamental level of structure and therefore have a "simpler model." Outstanding - thank you very much for this.
This is the most value lesson on YT to understand the pent. scales and their shape relation. No nonsense, no blahblah en show off. Great! Thank you so much Fret Science 🙂
I cannot express how grateful I am for this video. This made it all click and within 30 minutes I could connect the entire neck of the guitar based on this structuring! Great videos!!😊
I suspect most teachers pass on the knowledge in the same way they learned it, which is why, for example, the CAGED methodology hasn’t been significantly updated in 50 years. Cheers! 🎸🧪🤘
Finally. I knew this framework existed but lacked the experience to work it out myself. I’ve been searching for years without fully understanding what it is I’ve been looking for. Thank you.
Innovattive attempt at increasiing the joy of sounding good, better, and best on the instrument. I have seen many and this one is definitely unique. Anything that simplifies a students conceptualisation on the dynamics of phrasing single notes into a cohesive musical moment up, down and across the neck is genius to me. The key is practice, practice, practice.
Thanks. Unique isn’t always better, but I’ve observed that this framework combined with my approach to modes, triads, CAGED, and 3nps does speed up the learning curve quite a lot on the path to improvising freely and musically.
Fantastic organizational logic! I've been playing 40+ years with a degree in music and jazz studies and I gleaned a ton out of this. Great work at a production level also. Thanks...
Excellent video! I memorized the 5 minor pentatonic boxes in a very “rote” way. The not-so-good news is, I use them the same way …always starting from the sixth string even if I don’t play a note. This is another cell block of the dreaded “scale jail.” This video might be the file in the cake…Subscribed!
Enlightning, mind blowing! It is so much easier to memorize and use scales. You just need to know the notes on the fretboard and you finally break out from those vertical shapes. Thank you!!!
Watching your videos feels like diving into a scientific paper that cracks the secrets of the universe. I’m truly amazed by what I’ve learned, and your approach makes everything click and make sense to me. Thank you so much, Keith!
That’s great to hear…having a good coach to answer questions and to suggest exercises to go along with the videos would be a dream combination for quick advancement. Thanks! 🎸🧪🤘
Thank you so much. Your diagrams have really opened my eyes. Although I have learned many of these positions. I was not able to make the connection by understanding chord shapes up and down the fret board but was unable to make the connections as it relates to playing lead up and down the fret. Thank you for laying this out so clearly.
I have been playing guitar by ear and not having any idea of what I am doing, and being extremely limited in improvisation because I have never even started to grasp all of those intimidating and complicated patters. With this method, of course there still a lot for me to work out, but it all makes perfect sense, and that's so rewarding
@enzocypriani5055 That’s great to hear! If you want to learn to improvise, be sure to join my mailing list at fretscience.com…big announcement coming soon 🎸🧪🤘
Fantastic lesson. I’ve spent so much time on major scales and was looking for a good approach to pentatonic and this just knocked it out of the park. Thank you so much 💯👍🎸
This is an absolutely fantastic video. Everything is properly and expertly explained, to the point where even _I_ started jamming out in minutes. Many thanks!
The video that changed my 40-year guitar life. Absolutely original and fantastic. Keith is a genius. Now for the first time in 40 years, I'm gliding up, down, and across the fretboard. I even decided to memorize the fretboard (finally!) to take even more advantage of the stack and the rectangle (and of course as the result of Keith's advice). I've memorized 4 strings (it was easier than I thought) and just 2 to go. Keith, thank you absolutely. In the future, would you be able to tell us the rules of stacking the stacks and the rectangles laterally and vertically? I've figured out that the stacks are connected diagonally at the corner point, stacks and rectangles alternatve vertically, going up the fret one fret per pair. These are in your videos and cheat sheets. Then there are more rules which have not yet been explained. I've figured out the rules for the stack and the rectangle connecting laterally (rectangle's and stack's top are aligned when rect connects to stack's left side, bottom aligned when connecting to stack's right side). Then I got completely lost on how the rectangles (by themselves) connect laterally -- I eventually figured it out (there's a 2-fret overlap) but it would be terrific to hear the master himself explain these rules. This is so useful because now I see the shapes and I can see INSTANTLY where I can play. Thank you in advance.
Thanks for your kind words! In the video and cheat sheet, I laid out the connections that I use most often. For other movements, I tend to jump from root to root. If you want to find other ways of moving around the lattice of rectangle and stacks, I’d recommend drawing out an “infinite fretboard” of 12-18 frets and ~10 strings. Ignore the “warp” and use the rules you know to fill in rectangles and stacks. Then look for relationships that you think might be useful and practice applying them on the real fretboard. It’s a little more work, but you’ll find the connections that work best for you. 🎸🧪🤘
@@fretscience Got it, Keith. I kinda did that, I think, and nearly had a stroke - but thankfully didn't. In the process, I found a couple of interesting'useful rules... I would love to be able to get around to writing it up one day for you and that could be a topic for another video for you down the line perhaps.
Thanks, Keith, it is refreshing to step back a few decades to almost start over again with my guitar practice, experience and knowledge. There is a wealth of information on TH-cam, which I have found overwhelming at the very least. I do believe you have analysed your music and guitar skills over the years to offer us 'wannabes' new perspectives and quicker more efficient methods to reach our goals with our instruments, which is very refreshing. PS. I listened pretty intently to the Michael Gumley interview, all the best for a promising future. Thanks.
This video is not only clear and with great visuals, it helped me piece together a lot of the theory I had already learned. Had quite a few "ah-ha" moments and keep coming back to review/replay it as my skills/understanding improves. This is well narrated with little repetition to get the most out of your time. FANTASTIC work and a favorite of mine! THANK YOU!
This whole idea is so brilliant I can't find words to say it. I practiced modes until my fingers bled for a few years and didn't INTERNALIZE the positions solidly...a few watchings of this and I can confidently say that my pentatonic, modal, and major scale playing is 100% better...I can pay more fluently and musically than ever before...YOU JUST REMOVED MY BLIND SPOTS....I just wish you'd have taught me that when I was 16 and not 63..... :)
This is a true game changer way to look at it. With the minor pentatonic you instantly have your 1 b3 5 and b7 all within the rectangle stack. And to have all those plus the 4th in the square shape. Amazing. Thank you for this 🙏
Subbed. Watched all of your videos. Made my purchase of your bundle to support your channel. As a 60-yr old Mechanical Engineer, I love your systematic approach to teaching music. Thank you.
Thank you for putting this content out. I've always had hard time "connecting" patterns to the shapes of scales that could be easily memorized and your series is definitely a great investment to improve my skill!
after watchin g hundreds of videos on guitar...finallly found the one that demystified it and blew mind mind on understandin g scale 🙏🙏🙏....thans a lot and God bless you for sharing this...ill buy your cheat sheets from gumroad soon
I have to say that the production value of all of your videos is incredibly high. Im a beginner at soloing, but thanks to your it starts to sound really good more often. Cheers from Austria!
This video was very amazing for piecing together my previous knowledge I can navigate my entire fretboard with relative ease now! Thank-you very much for sharing your knowledge!
I have a couple of guitars tuned to perfect 4th. With no 3rds tuning, I can play triads with only 3 shapes vertically or horizontally. Makes it very easy to visualize an infinite number of frets or strings with the same 3 shapes. Simplifies everything! Thanks for posting.
Thank you very much for your insight. Had memorized the pentatonic scale for a long time, but now I see all the modes so clearly and my playing is just so much more melodic, harmonic and enjoyable. Well presented. Great work. Thanks again
This is INCREDIBLE. So glad I found this channel. I have been playing for 20+ years and more-or-less plateaued 10ish years ago. This feels like the next step to leveling up my chops. Can't wait to dig in more and practice this!
Thanks, Chris! With this one, my goal was to jam as much useful information as I could into 10 minutes, without making it too complex…I’m afraid I may have squeezed in a little too much 🤣
Wow! Over the decades I've studied and learnt the five pentatonic shapes for Major and Minor all over the neck. Anybody who has laboured over that exercise knows how difficult that is. Now I find out that all I actually needed to remember was these two simply shapes!! lol. If you are new to the guitar and are thinking of learning pentatonics, don't bother with any other TH-cam videos. Simply learn this. Trust me, you'll save yourself a lot of time and headaches! Thanks very much! :)
I use two patterns as well, but they’re grouped together different. The same mindset is involved,, though. Two patterns are all you need and you always know where the scale tones are because they always come out in the same place within the patterns, of which again there are only two. And then, minor 7th arpeggios; Same thing, just leave out the 4th.
That’s great to hear…definitely check out my other videos…several of them build on this in interesting ways, and you don’t need to master each piece before learning about the next one because they all work together. 🎸🧪🤘
I like this concept, I’m a bit confused about when to apply the box vs rectangle pattern if I target a random note as the root what leads you to decide I’m going to use the box vs the rectangle? If I could understand that aspect I think this system would be great
It depends on whether you’re visualizing the minor or major pentatonic scale. If minor and the root is under your index finger, you’re playing the rectangle. If the root is under one of your other fingers (I say ring finger in the video) you’re playing the stack. These are reversed for the major pentatonic scale because of where the roots sit inside the rectangle and stack shapes.
I'm saving this video because it pictures exactly what I eventually came up with on my own, to organize the fretboard and the sounds/intervals. Handy tip for others: the "rectangle" always makes the sound of the signature riff of "Layla" (da-da-dadee-a-da-da). *And* the first note in the rectangle is the 3 (of the major key) which I remember because the stack finger positions are three frets apart. The "stack" makes the sound of the Jimmy Page fast riff in the middle of "Dazed and Confused" (not the slow riff at the beginning, mind you). And its first note is the 2 (of the major key) which I remember because of the two-fret moves. This video could be even more stratospheric if its creator had just added *example sounds* for everyone to hear why these shapes do what they do for your playing! Oh well, I missed my chance to make it myself. Well done FS.
Keith MASSIVE THANK YOU from accross the Atlantic + purchased sheet (the best 5$ i have spent) + thumbs up + subscribed I first bought the sheet as a thank you but then realise that this is absolute essential to assimilate the video as it fully complements. I always need paper in my hand to assimilate a concept - I will strongly recommend for everyone taking this concept further to get the sheets Been playing pentatonics for years but have little time to practice and was always getting minors and majors jumbled up - the biggest thing to hit me is that a rectangle can be made minor or major depending on root and same with stack - WoW and WoW - i can just play & combine anything to anything - its literally like LEGO and i love LEGO. still digesting this God Bless ....
This is a true reference for me - every time I look at it since my first discovery I pick something new. These few minutes of a You Tube video are compacted with knowledge- each sentence has a new message Respect - thank u 🙏🏽
Super helpful video! Mapping the fretboard with shapes makes so much sense, especially because I’m a bassist and don’t have to deal with the “warp.” Also, how is the first time I’ve ever heard of the hexatonic scale!? I love the 2nd/9th interval and try to incorporate it wherever I can.
I subscribed and bought the lesson materials. Incredibly useful content here that will help me in giving guitar lessons as well as my own mastery of the fretboard.
It’s extra gratifying to get this kind of feedback from an experienced teacher and player…thanks! 🎸🧪🤘 PS: please send your students to the channel. 😉 In all seriousness, it’ll help you focus with them on the more fun aspects of making music!
hi there thanks a lot ! I didn't get the finger positioning part could someone re explain with other words how is that working? amazing video btw ! first time i'm actually grasping all this
Many guitar players play the two-note-per-string pentatonic shapes primarily using two fingers - the index (first) and ring (third). I used that in the video as a shorthand for talking about where your hand falls relative to the rectangle or stack that you're playing. You can use whatever fingering works for you, but you'll find that it's awkward to play the root in the minor pentatonic rectangle with your ring finger, or the root in the major pentatonic rectangle with your index finger. I hope that helps! 🎸🧪🤘
@@fretscience one question. Can I beginner like myself just focus on the minor patterns exclusively for a time? Switching back and fourth makes it harder to retain.
@MarkandSandieInMotion Yes, you can absolutely do that. I recommend focusing on the rectangle and stack patterns themselves (which are exactly the same in both scales) and on where the roots are for the minor pentatonic. Then, when you start working in major pentatonic, you can primarily focus on the change of root positions. As you get more practice with them over time, you can start to absorb where the other intervals are, and for that, I recommend also watching my Intervals video and thinking of the 3rd, 5th, and 7th as positions relative to the root. The more you focus on how shapes relate to the root positions, the easier it will be to connect together other arpeggios and scales and to be able to switch seamlessly between them.
But for what it’s worth, there is also value in switching back and forth and making your brain work a little harder to remember the differences between the two scales. The effort of recalling the information is what makes it stick in the long run. If may feel like slower progress, but it can end up being faster in practice.
Very helpful, only wish I had sounds (some playing) so I can connect the head knowledge to the music. Knowing how all the notes sound in relation to the root seems super helpful while learning these. At least for a beginner with little ear training.
I agree, and I’ve started including more live demonstrations in my newer videos, but it’s also essential to do this with your own guitar. In addition to connecting shapes to sounds, it also ties in the physical movement. Glad you found it helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
Perpetual beginner here, but I’m going to buy your download and try this. And… wow, no matter how hard you try, there’s always someone waiting to take you down. Heh, guitarists and pilots. I can only imagine the dustup when two guitarist-pilots get together!
I am listening to your interview with Michael Gumley right now and so glad to have found you. God bless your work and I look forward to learning from you. I play at church most weekends. I have been playing for over 40 years, but often feel retarded when it comes to memorizing progressions and/or scale patterns. Thank you for being here.
@@fretscience i downloaded the audiobook for the Fast and Slow thinking. I have been listening to Tom Quayle recently. I bought his Solo program for my iPhone. I am thrilled with your concepts. God bless.
@@BrianVallotton Nice! I'm going to do a video that talks about how to apply Thinking, Fast & Slow to guitar sometime relatively soon. I like Tom Quayle's "Solo" app quite a lot for drilling intervals...definitely a useful tool.

There are about a million videos out there on the "five positions," the "pentatonic equator," and on and on and on, and those are fine (or at least a lot of them are). But this is UNIQUE - you broken things down into a more fundamental level of structure and therefore have a "simpler model." Outstanding - thank you very much for this.
Glad it was helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
This is the most value lesson on YT to understand the pent. scales and their shape relation. No nonsense, no blahblah en show off. Great! Thank you so much Fret Science 🙂
So glad you liked it…thanks, David! 🎸🧪🤘
I cannot express how grateful I am for this video. This made it all click and within 30 minutes I could connect the entire neck of the guitar based on this structuring! Great videos!!😊
Thank you, Josh...I so glad it helped!
This is an absolute game changer!! I started playing with this yesterday and I’m having so many revelations of the fretboard. Finally!!
That’s great to hear! 🎸🧪🤘
This is how I've viewed the fretboard for decades. I can't believe this isn't how it's always taught. People love to over complicate things.
I suspect most teachers pass on the knowledge in the same way they learned it, which is why, for example, the CAGED methodology hasn’t been significantly updated in 50 years. Cheers! 🎸🧪🤘
@Skippy you might want to check out the next video in the series. CAGED is great, but it’s not usually taught effectively…I’m trying to change that
It was easier for me to just play all the patterns over and over again all over the neck until it worked itself out. To a jam track, of course.
Search for books, you will find tremendous amounts of information...
This series might be the best one I have ever watched about scales / notes on the guitar. Extremely helpful, thank you!!!
Great to hear…cheers! 🎸🧪🤘
Finally. I knew this framework existed but lacked the experience to work it out myself. I’ve been searching for years without fully understanding what it is I’ve been looking for. Thank you.
Glad it helped! 🎸🧪🤘
Same with me. This is the explanation I needed.
That’s awesome to hear! 🎸🧪🤘
Innovattive attempt at increasiing the joy of sounding good, better, and best on the instrument. I have seen many and this one is definitely unique. Anything that simplifies a students conceptualisation on the dynamics of phrasing single notes into a cohesive musical moment up, down and across the neck is genius to me. The key is practice, practice, practice.
Thanks. Unique isn’t always better, but I’ve observed that this framework combined with my approach to modes, triads, CAGED, and 3nps does speed up the learning curve quite a lot on the path to improvising freely and musically.
Fantastic organizational logic! I've been playing 40+ years with a degree in music and jazz studies and I gleaned a ton out of this. Great work at a production level also. Thanks...
That’s awesome…thanks, Steven! 🎸🧪🤘
Excellent video! I memorized the 5 minor pentatonic boxes in a very “rote” way. The not-so-good news is, I use them the same way …always starting from the sixth string even if I don’t play a note. This is another cell block of the dreaded “scale jail.” This video might be the file in the cake…Subscribed!
Thanks, Tony...I'm glad it's giving you another way to think about things!
Enlightning, mind blowing! It is so much easier to memorize and use scales. You just need to know the notes on the fretboard and you finally break out from those vertical shapes. Thank you!!!
Exactly, and in fact the only notes you need to be able to locate by name while you play are the roots! 🎸🧪🤘
Watching your videos feels like diving into a scientific paper that cracks the secrets of the universe. I’m truly amazed by what I’ve learned, and your approach makes everything click and make sense to me. Thank you so much, Keith!
Much appreciated, thanks! 🎸🧪🤘
My students are always asking me what channels I might recommend … your channel just moved to the top of my list. Great video.
That’s great to hear…having a good coach to answer questions and to suggest exercises to go along with the videos would be a dream combination for quick advancement. Thanks! 🎸🧪🤘
What Tremendously important lesson. It shows how invaluable music theory is.
This channel is absolutely brilliant. Beautifully presented. A true gem.
Thanks for your kind words, Darren! 🎸🧪🤘
Thank you so much. Your diagrams have really opened my eyes. Although I have learned many of these positions. I was not able to make the connection by understanding chord shapes up and down the fret board but was unable to make the connections as it relates to playing lead up and down the fret. Thank you for laying this out so clearly.
I'm so glad it helped, Harold! 🎸🧪🤘
I’m a novice guitarist, keyboard background - fretboard science is absolutely illuminating
@djhedflux That's great to hear...cheers! 🎸🧪🤘
I have been playing guitar by ear and not having any idea of what I am doing, and being extremely limited in improvisation because I have never even started to grasp all of those intimidating and complicated patters. With this method, of course there still a lot for me to work out, but it all makes perfect sense, and that's so rewarding
@enzocypriani5055 That’s great to hear! If you want to learn to improvise, be sure to join my mailing list at fretscience.com…big announcement coming soon 🎸🧪🤘
Fantastic lesson. I’ve spent so much time on major scales and was looking for a good approach to pentatonic and this just knocked it out of the park. Thank you so much 💯👍🎸
🎸🧪🤘
Your graphs will really help with adding chord tones and “appropriate” bends to my pentatonic improvisation. Thank you for this impressive work! 10:28
You’re welcome, Daniel…I’m glad it was helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
This is an absolutely fantastic video. Everything is properly and expertly explained, to the point where even _I_ started jamming out in minutes. Many thanks!
That’s great to hear! 🎸🧪🤘
The video that changed my 40-year guitar life. Absolutely original and fantastic. Keith is a genius. Now for the first time in 40 years, I'm gliding up, down, and across the fretboard. I even decided to memorize the fretboard (finally!) to take even more advantage of the stack and the rectangle (and of course as the result of Keith's advice). I've memorized 4 strings (it was easier than I thought) and just 2 to go.
Keith, thank you absolutely.
In the future, would you be able to tell us the rules of stacking the stacks and the rectangles laterally and vertically? I've figured out that the stacks are connected diagonally at the corner point, stacks and rectangles alternatve vertically, going up the fret one fret per pair. These are in your videos and cheat sheets.
Then there are more rules which have not yet been explained. I've figured out the rules for the stack and the rectangle connecting laterally (rectangle's and stack's top are aligned when rect connects to stack's left side, bottom aligned when connecting to stack's right side).
Then I got completely lost on how the rectangles (by themselves) connect laterally -- I eventually figured it out (there's a 2-fret overlap) but it would be terrific to hear the master himself explain these rules. This is so useful because now I see the shapes and I can see INSTANTLY where I can play.
Thank you in advance.
Thanks for your kind words! In the video and cheat sheet, I laid out the connections that I use most often. For other movements, I tend to jump from root to root. If you want to find other ways of moving around the lattice of rectangle and stacks, I’d recommend drawing out an “infinite fretboard” of 12-18 frets and ~10 strings. Ignore the “warp” and use the rules you know to fill in rectangles and stacks. Then look for relationships that you think might be useful and practice applying them on the real fretboard. It’s a little more work, but you’ll find the connections that work best for you. 🎸🧪🤘
@@fretscience Got it, Keith. I kinda did that, I think, and nearly had a stroke - but thankfully didn't. In the process, I found a couple of interesting'useful rules... I would love to be able to get around to writing it up one day for you and that could be a topic for another video for you down the line perhaps.
You can also send me a sketch if you find something useful that’s hard to put into words. I do enjoy visualizations 😅
I can't believe how good this video is, especially considering how new your channel is. Thank you !
Glad you enjoyed it! 🎸🧪🤘
Thanks, Keith, it is refreshing to step back a few decades to almost start over again with my guitar practice, experience and knowledge. There is a wealth of information on TH-cam, which I have found overwhelming at the very least. I do believe you have analysed your music and guitar skills over the years to offer us 'wannabes' new perspectives and quicker more efficient methods to reach our goals with our instruments, which is very refreshing. PS. I listened pretty intently to the Michael Gumley interview, all the best for a promising future. Thanks.
Thanks, Tony! 🎸🧪🤘
Mind. Blown. My tele and my neighbors thank you!
Thanks, Nikolaj!
This video is not only clear and with great visuals, it helped me piece together a lot of the theory I had already learned. Had quite a few "ah-ha" moments and keep coming back to review/replay it as my skills/understanding improves. This is well narrated with little repetition to get the most out of your time. FANTASTIC work and a favorite of mine! THANK YOU!
Thanks so much, Francois…I’m thrilled you’re finding it useful!
This is the single most valuable video on pentatonics I've ever seen. Revelation.
Just wait until you see how the “hidden in plain sight” video takes this and gives you all your major scale modes for free 😉🎸🧪🤘
This whole idea is so brilliant I can't find words to say it. I practiced modes until my fingers bled for a few years and didn't INTERNALIZE the positions solidly...a few watchings of this and I can confidently say that my pentatonic, modal, and major scale playing is 100% better...I can pay more fluently and musically than ever before...YOU JUST REMOVED MY BLIND SPOTS....I just wish you'd have taught me that when I was 16 and not 63..... :)
That's great to hear! It took me over 30 years to figure it out, so you're definitely not alone on this 😅
This video has unlocked a few of the fretboard mysteries for me, what a great way you have, your presentation is clear and concise. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words...I'm glad you found it helpful!
This is a true game changer way to look at it. With the minor pentatonic you instantly have your 1 b3 5 and b7 all within the rectangle stack. And to have all those plus the 4th in the square shape. Amazing. Thank you for this 🙏
Glad it helped! 🎸🧪🤘

Subbed. Watched all of your videos. Made my purchase of your bundle to support your channel. As a 60-yr old Mechanical Engineer, I love your systematic approach to teaching music. Thank you.
Wow! What an eye opener. Here I was memorizing patterns with no understanding. Thanks for helping me see the light!
Glad it was helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
Thank you for putting this content out. I've always had hard time "connecting" patterns to the shapes of scales that could be easily memorized and your series is definitely a great investment to improve my skill!
Thanks Daniel…my hope is that it’s good mental scaffolding that gets you going quickly and provides better overall understanding.
after watchin g hundreds of videos on guitar...finallly found the one that demystified it and blew mind mind on understandin g scale 🙏🙏🙏....thans a lot and God bless you for sharing this...ill buy your cheat sheets from gumroad soon
Glad it helped! 🎸🧪🤘
I have to say that the production value of all of your videos is incredibly high. Im a beginner at soloing, but thanks to your it starts to sound really good more often. Cheers from Austria!
That’s awesome to hear…cheers! 🎸🧪🤘
I’m loving your tutorials. The fretboard just became a little less mysterious. Thanks.
Thank you, Chris…I’m glad they’re helping!
For me, a LOT less mysterious and beautiful in its consistent logic
This video was very amazing for piecing together my previous knowledge I can navigate my entire fretboard with relative ease now! Thank-you very much for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you! 🎸🧪🤘
I have a couple of guitars tuned to perfect 4th. With no 3rds tuning, I can play triads with only 3 shapes vertically or horizontally. Makes it very easy to visualize an infinite number of frets or strings with the same 3 shapes. Simplifies everything! Thanks for posting.
4ths tuning makes it quite hard to play a lot of classic riffs, but it’s definitely a lot simpler conceptually!
Simple. Clear. Perfect.
Thanks, Tom! 🎸🧪🤘
Thank you very much for your insight. Had memorized the pentatonic scale for a long time, but now I see all the modes so clearly and my playing is just so much more melodic, harmonic and enjoyable. Well presented. Great work. Thanks again
I’m glad it helped! 🎸🧪🤘
This is INCREDIBLE. So glad I found this channel. I have been playing for 20+ years and more-or-less plateaued 10ish years ago. This feels like the next step to leveling up my chops. Can't wait to dig in more and practice this!

Truly brilliant. I am in awe of how insightful and useful this framework is
Much appreciated, thanks! 🎸🧪🤘
Love how you simply!
Thanks, Chris! With this one, my goal was to jam as much useful information as I could into 10 minutes, without making it too complex…I’m afraid I may have squeezed in a little too much 🤣

Best video I’ve seen to teach movement and have saved it in case I need a refresher.
Thanks, Craig…glad it was helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
Wow! Over the decades I've studied and learnt the five pentatonic shapes for Major and Minor all over the neck. Anybody who has laboured over that exercise knows how difficult that is. Now I find out that all I actually needed to remember was these two simply shapes!! lol. If you are new to the guitar and are thinking of learning pentatonics, don't bother with any other TH-cam videos. Simply learn this. Trust me, you'll save yourself a lot of time and headaches! Thanks very much! :)
Thanks so much for your kind words…I’m thrilled that this material helped shed new light on something you’ve practiced for so long! 🎸🧪🤘
very useful simple explanation
Thank you!
Great! Very simple and very useful. Thanks a lot...

You did it again! Incredible visuals and explanations. Just printed the PDF's and going straight to practice. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind words, Charles! 🎸🧪🤘
Have been trying this after reading it on the web site, but now there is a video! Thank you!
Thanks, Hristo…much appreciated!
I use two patterns as well, but they’re grouped together different. The same mindset is involved,, though. Two patterns are all you need and you always know where the scale tones are because they always come out in the same place within the patterns, of which again there are only two. And then, minor 7th arpeggios; Same thing, just leave out the 4th.
Спасибо за ваш труд!
Iv been stuck in the intermediate level for years.
This is exactly what I need to proceed
Thanks for this
That’s great to hear…definitely check out my other videos…several of them build on this in interesting ways, and you don’t need to master each piece before learning about the next one because they all work together. 🎸🧪🤘
I love guitar channels like this, this knowledge helps so much
Thank you! 🎸🧪❤️
Just mind blowing! You did it again. This is great. Thank you very much!

Excellent material.
Thanks, Michael...much appreciated! 🎸🧪🤘
I like this concept, I’m a bit confused about when to apply the box vs rectangle pattern if I target a random note as the root what leads you to decide I’m going to use the box vs the rectangle? If I could understand that aspect I think this system would be great
It depends on whether you’re visualizing the minor or major pentatonic scale. If minor and the root is under your index finger, you’re playing the rectangle. If the root is under one of your other fingers (I say ring finger in the video) you’re playing the stack. These are reversed for the major pentatonic scale because of where the roots sit inside the rectangle and stack shapes.
I'm saving this video because it pictures exactly what I eventually came up with on my own, to organize the fretboard and the sounds/intervals.
Handy tip for others: the "rectangle" always makes the sound of the signature riff of "Layla" (da-da-dadee-a-da-da). *And* the first note in the rectangle is the 3 (of the major key) which I remember because the stack finger positions are three frets apart.
The "stack" makes the sound of the Jimmy Page fast riff in the middle of "Dazed and Confused" (not the slow riff at the beginning, mind you). And its first note is the 2 (of the major key) which I remember because of the two-fret moves.
This video could be even more stratospheric if its creator had just added *example sounds* for everyone to hear why these shapes do what they do for your playing! Oh well, I missed my chance to make it myself. Well done FS.
Thanks, Thomas. I tried to keep this one as short and compact as I could, but future videos will have more audio examples.
Keith
MASSIVE THANK YOU from accross the Atlantic + purchased sheet (the best 5$ i have spent) + thumbs up + subscribed
I first bought the sheet as a thank you but then realise that this is absolute essential to assimilate the video as it fully complements. I always need paper in my hand to assimilate a concept - I will strongly recommend for everyone taking this concept further to get the sheets
Been playing pentatonics for years but have little time to practice and was always getting minors and majors jumbled up - the biggest thing to hit me is that a rectangle can be made minor or major depending on root and same with stack - WoW and WoW - i can just play & combine anything to anything - its literally like LEGO and i love LEGO. still digesting this
God Bless ....
Thanks for your kind words, Nadeem! 🎸🧪🤘
This is a true reference for me - every time I look at it since my first discovery I pick something new.
These few minutes of a You Tube video are compacted with knowledge- each sentence has a new message
Respect - thank u 🙏🏽
Super helpful video! Mapping the fretboard with shapes makes so much sense, especially because I’m a bassist and don’t have to deal with the “warp.” Also, how is the first time I’ve ever heard of the hexatonic scale!? I love the 2nd/9th interval and try to incorporate it wherever I can.
Glad it was helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
I subscribed and bought the lesson materials. Incredibly useful content here that will help me in giving guitar lessons as well as my own mastery of the fretboard.
It’s extra gratifying to get this kind of feedback from an experienced teacher and player…thanks! 🎸🧪🤘
PS: please send your students to the channel. 😉 In all seriousness, it’ll help you focus with them on the more fun aspects of making music!
@@fretscience I DEFINITELY will!
hi there thanks a lot ! I didn't get the finger positioning part could someone re explain with other words how is that working? amazing video btw ! first time i'm actually grasping all this
Many guitar players play the two-note-per-string pentatonic shapes primarily using two fingers - the index (first) and ring (third). I used that in the video as a shorthand for talking about where your hand falls relative to the rectangle or stack that you're playing. You can use whatever fingering works for you, but you'll find that it's awkward to play the root in the minor pentatonic rectangle with your ring finger, or the root in the major pentatonic rectangle with your index finger. I hope that helps! 🎸🧪🤘
Thanks a lot ! Very clear i got it ! Thank you so much again for your videos ! i bought the pdf really worth it !

@HBasch my pleasure…thanks for your support!
This just absolutely blew my mind. Buying the cheat sheet.
Glad it helped, and thanks for your support! 🎸🧪🤘
Im a beginner hell bent on making melodies on this guitar. Thanks for the vids.
Glad you’re here! 🎸🧪🤘
@@fretscience one question. Can I beginner like myself just focus on the minor patterns exclusively for a time? Switching back and fourth makes it harder to retain.
@MarkandSandieInMotion Yes, you can absolutely do that. I recommend focusing on the rectangle and stack patterns themselves (which are exactly the same in both scales) and on where the roots are for the minor pentatonic. Then, when you start working in major pentatonic, you can primarily focus on the change of root positions. As you get more practice with them over time, you can start to absorb where the other intervals are, and for that, I recommend also watching my Intervals video and thinking of the 3rd, 5th, and 7th as positions relative to the root. The more you focus on how shapes relate to the root positions, the easier it will be to connect together other arpeggios and scales and to be able to switch seamlessly between them.
But for what it’s worth, there is also value in switching back and forth and making your brain work a little harder to remember the differences between the two scales. The effort of recalling the information is what makes it stick in the long run. If may feel like slower progress, but it can end up being faster in practice.
great concept, very visual! It would be even more useful if the ideas were illustrated by small phrases on the guitar.
Agreed. On this one, I ran into a self-imposed deadline…but I’ll definitely be incorporating audio examples in future videos.
Very helpful, only wish I had sounds (some playing) so I can connect the head knowledge to the music. Knowing how all the notes sound in relation to the root seems super helpful while learning these. At least for a beginner with little ear training.
I agree, and I’ve started including more live demonstrations in my newer videos, but it’s also essential to do this with your own guitar. In addition to connecting shapes to sounds, it also ties in the physical movement. Glad you found it helpful! 🎸🧪🤘
Perpetual beginner here, but I’m going to buy your download and try this. And… wow, no matter how hard you try, there’s always someone waiting to take you down. Heh, guitarists and pilots. I can only imagine the dustup when two guitarist-pilots get together!
