[ Up ] [ Am pentatonic C note ]
[ Am at D ] [ Am at E ]
[ Am at G ] [ Am root 17 ]
[ Am open ] [ Am at the G ]
A minor pentatonic scale starting on the E note
The next position of the A minor pentatonic scale will be the
12th position or starting on the 12th fret.
Once again we are still using the A minor pentatonic scale, but starting at the 12th fret. Notice the fingering
pattern. 1-4 1-4 1-3 1-3 2-4 1-4. The illustration below
shows the notes that are played and make up this position. By now
you should have the fingering system memorized and know how to move
through this position. It will take some time to get use to all the
different fingering patterns.
Listen to this E to G
The tablature has been included below.
---------------------------------------------12-15---
-------------------------------------13-15-----------
-----------------------------12-14-------------------
--------------------12-14----------------------------
----------12-15--------------------------------------
-12-15-----------------------------------------------
You start this position with your 1 finger, 12th fret or E
note Low E string. Then play the G note with the 4
finger Low E string. The next note is played
with the 1 finger on the A note, A string. Look above at all the note positions.
Continue through the scale until you become comfortable with this
pattern.
There's only a few more patterns to cover. The next position of the A minor pentatonic scale will be the
15th
position starting at the G note, 15th Fret.
Good Luck,
