Up to 8 minutes is showing you where major and minor pentatonic scales come from. From 8:00 onwards is actually playing these in a blues guitar context This blues guitar tuition is brought to you by Richard from http://www.rguitars.co.uk In this video I use a Jam Pal looper for my basic backing parts. I recommend the use of a looper to all "students" of blues! https://rguitars.co.uk/products/smj-jam-pal-every-guitarists-best-friend I have so wanted to bring you a video discussing major/minor pentatonics but also for it to tie in to my introductory theory videos too - and fingers crossed this does that! In this video I bring together facts we have been picking up in my guitar theory basics videos about where you will find major and minor pentatonic scales in relation to scales and chord building - and then how these pentatonic scales are applied to blues and WHY they work. By understanding WHY major and minor pentatonic scales work THEN you can express yourself so much more freely - and enjoy playing blues so much more. Hopefully when you have finished watching this video you will know how to mix minor and major pentatonic scales freely when playing blues guitar Oh!
