A minor pentatonic scale starting on the G note

[ Up ] [ Am pentatonic C note ] [ Am at D ] [ Am at E ] [ Am at G ] [ Am root 17 ] [ Am open ] [ Am at the G ]

Once again every 12 frets the notes repeat. The illustration below shows the notes of the Am pentatonic scale starting at the 3rd fret, G note. This position has the same fingering pattern and notes as the 15th fret position.

The fingering is as follows 1-3 1-3 1-4 1-4 1-3 1-3

Notice above to the left the fingering that makes up this pattern. You start on the 3rd fret,1 finger Low E string, then move to the 5th fret 3 finger, Low E string. So far all of the positions have been explained in detail. You should be able to figure out how to work through this position.  Remember, it is the same fingering as the 15th fret. All notes and scales repeat after 12 frets.

The tablature has been included below.

--------------------------------3-5-
--------------------------3-5-------
--------------------2-5-------------
--------------2-5-------------------

In the next lesson I would like to put the G position, root note position the C position, the D position and E position together. I will also be introducing the slide which will add to your tablature vocabulary.  
A minor pentatonic grouping.

Good Luck,
