I’m not clear on fingerings for major pentatonic scales. Minor - no problem. Where do the major ones start and how are they fingered?
Good simple guitar lesson. The 5 pentatonic positions can be broken into 2 forms.
I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years now and I’ve learned everything by ear. To this day I don’t think I could play a scale.
