    About this ebook

    Introducing Pentatonic Scales for Jazz Guitar explores the use of major and minor pentatonic scales.
    This book covers following arguments:

    • Pentatonic scale construction
    • Major and Minor pentatonic analysis and modes
    • How to study pentatonic scales: positions, scale patterns, melodic patterns, unusual positions for tapping, legatos, sweep and economic picking
    • Improvisation licks: mixing major scale and related major pentatonic scales, most common improvisation approaches

    Main goal of this book is developing a real melodic approach to pentatonic usage starting from most basic material to intermediate improvisation techniques.
