  • BL-012 • Blues Lead Guitar #2 Scales (justinguitar.com)

    Posted by admin on December 2nd, 2009 and filed under lead guitar lessons | 25 Comments »

    PART 2 in SERIES – In this lesson we look at the three most commonly used scales in blues, The Minor Pentatonic, The Blues Scale and The Dorian Mode. This is your blues “alphabet” and you should get to know these before starting to learn your licks!

    Taught by Justin Sandercoe.

    Full support at the web site where you will find hundreds of lessons on a wide range of subjects, and all the scales and chords that you will ever need! There is a great forum too to get help, no matter what the problem.

    And it is all totally free, no bull. No sample lessons, no memberships. Just tons of great lessons :)

    To get help with your lesson look up the number at the start of the video title (like ST-666 or whatever) on the Lesson Index page.

    Good luck and take care, J

      Good video. I haven’t learned the Dorian mode scale yet but it kind of looks like the first position of the minor pentatonic scale (in A) overlapping the second position of the major pentatonic scale (in A). Is there a reason for this or is it just a coincidence?
