Another great rhythm micro lesson.Thanks . The tablature heading for this says ML038 Fingerstyle. You might want to correct this.
Brian says
Thanks for the heads up on this – I have corrected it and put the correct title.

This is a fun one. Messing with it just a little and it became the riff of the Beatles ‘Money’
sciencefiction says
Sounds like “Money” to me.
I sure wish Brian would give a lesson on the Garage Band sound of the 60’s.

cbuck says
the note on the 7th fret 2nd is not in pattern one is it ?
Brian says
Correct. It’s not in pattern 1 of the minor pentatonic scale…. it is, however, in pattern 2 of the major pentatonic scale.
cbuck says
thanks Brian, love your teaching style. I’m am trying to get the feel of minor and major. Wild Horses solo sounds sad is that minor? Johnny b Goode sounds happy is that major? Or am I just feeling beats? Thanks
Brian says
Wild Horses is in a minor key and Johnny B Goode is in a major key so you are correct. The beats / rhythm has nothing to do with major / minor. You can have a slow tempo major song or a fast minor key song.
cbuck says
thanks Brian, I’m getting there.
Bosc T says
