Scales: Blues and Major (pg.6)

Here you can see all 5 positions and their relationship to each other on the fretboard. Practice all 5 scale positions/patterns by starting on different frets. Try starting with position/pattern 4, then move up to position/pattern 5, back to 4, back to 3 and so on. You will find that with enough practice, these will become second nature. You will also note that these are the very same patterns for both the Blues/ Minor Pentatonic Scales and the Major Pentatonic Scale. The only difference between the Minor and Major Pentatonic Scales is the location of the root notes for each pattern.
