greghagger Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I was jamming through a Robben Ford track the other day and I found myself messing around with an idea for a lick. Without really thinking about it I was using a pattern based on the minor pentatonic scale. This is a really useful scale to utilise when trying to come up with licks and fills. Once you get the pentatonic scales under your fingers, you have options and great sounding note choices for creating bass lines and knowing these scale shapes also help with transcribing. So I thought I'd share this lick in a YouTube lesson and also run through the minor pentatonic scale. A bonus is that this lick will work over minor and major chords so it's very versatile. Some of you may find the lick pretty technical and fast so it might take a while to learn but I've also put a second easier lick in the lesson for those of you that don't fancy the main lick! You’ll find the free PDF link under the video. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/4AXGXTcugZA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
