The CAGED Pentatonic Soloing System is designed to break you out of that box pattern that we all learned when we first started to play guitar. It's the virtual blueprint for utilizing the entire fretboard. If you are only using the standard pentatonic box pattern, you are only using 20% of the fretboard.
The goal of this course is to break you out of the single pentatonic box and get you using 5 different pentatonic shapes that utilize the entire fretboard.
Pentatonic scales are a great place to start because it's the first scale most guitar players learn, and it's one that we use the most.
You'll Learn:
5 Positions of the Major Scale
5 Positions of the Major Pentatonic Scale
5 Movable Chord Shapes
Triads Shapes
Chromatic Notes
Chord & Scale Formulas
Landing/Target Notes
Interval Matrix
Practice Logs
TABs and much more!!!!!
It's better to have some sort of soloing system versus having no system at all. This system is the method I use to create phrases, licks and solos. This method can really open up the way you view the fretboard of the guitar. This course shows you how-to connect chord shapes and scale patterns to take advantage of the entire fretboad. It's like connecting the dotes.
This course come with an MP3 Jam Track as well as, TABs, Chord & Scale Formulas, Interval Matrix, 5 Movable Chord Shapes, the 5 Major Scale Patterns, the 5 Major Pentatonic Scale Patterns, Extended Scale Pattern and Practice Log.
This course is 1 hour & 42 minutes in length.

In this lecture we discuss the 5 movable octave shapes. Notice how one shape connects to the next shape.
This is the Solo Example for this course. In this example I create a solo using licks from all 5 scale patterns.
Lick #8 fininishes of the solo with a flurry of notes. This one is based on the 5th postion scale pattern but the first half of the lick includes a "C" note which is not part of the "G" penatonic but it is a note from one of the chords we play. THe second half of the lick includes a "Bb" note. This is note within out major pentatonic scale, it's a chromatic (passing) note.
In this lecture we discuss adding in the Bb note in to a chromatic sequence (A-Bb-B) to add a little extra flavor while connecting the triads up and down the neck.
