Description
In this MicroLesson (ML103), I’ll explain how using triads can make a huge difference in the way you improvise a melody, and how to combine them with the pentatonic scales.

Another super simple, super helpful, super easy to understand lesson that I’ll need a month to get under my fingers. But happy to do it cuz the principles and applications are so direct and useful – all over the fret board and in so many genres! Many thanks! Again!

Another excellent lesson, which enlightens for me a lot. I put down the theory and start making some nice music, which is more than copying the exact notes your playing and making some new ones of “my own”.
Wil W says
Brian,
This lesson fits perfectly with EP546. In this you explained the target tones (3 or b7) of the new chords. ML103 is another good example. Further I see crearly that you use the Pentatonic form 2 with the E-shape and form 5 with the A-shape and form 4 with the C-shape on the different parts of the guitar fretboard (neck).
I whish you and your family a Happy Christmas and a healthy 2024. Looking forward to see your lessons in the next year.
Wil

Thanks for this Christmas present. Right up my alley and many others I’m sure. Nice description of the lesson as well.
Bruce M says
I wish you had mentioned which pentatonic you were using in the different positions and whether you were using major or minor forms.
David Rinck says
This is the key I was looking for, thanks!
