Minor pentatonic · 5 notes
BoxFive boxes with two notes per string cover the whole neck, and each box links up with the next. Box 1 starts on the root on the lowest string.
The notes are played as eighth notes. The neck lights up so you can follow along.
The backbone of rock and blues, and the scale most people learn first. Five notes with no semitone steps, so almost nothing sounds wrong. Play it over minor chords and over blues in the same key.
Chords whose notes all lie in the scale, sorted by root.
