Major Pentatonic Scale - Position 4

The fourth position of the major pentatonic scale.

James Porter

Slide up two more frets from third position and you are in fourth position. Now, the jagged line of notes is on the left and on the right is a vertical line.

Here, there are two places where you can play the root. One is on the third string with your second finger, and the other is on the first string with your fourth finger.
