http://www.LogicalLeadGuitar.com Once you've learned a couple different pentatonic (or diatonic) guitar scale patterns, you have to work at sliding from one to another. When you improvise, you'll need to be able to slide smoothly back and forth between scale patterns in order to flow freely up and down the guitar fretboard.
This video -- an excerpt from the four-hour DVD guitar course, Logical Lead Guitar -- demonstrates essential exercises to perfect this technique.
I call these exercises "Puzzle Locking Exercises" because guitar scale patterns fit together like puzzle pieces as you move up or down the fretboard. When you look at fretboard diagrams of adjacent scale patterns (whether you're looking at pentatonic, diatonic, or almost any guitar scale pattern), notice how the highest notes in one pattern are the same as the lowest notes in the next pattern up the fretboard -- just like puzzle pieces shares a common shape at their adjoining edges.
So there you have it: Puzzle Locking Exercises!
Go ahead and lock 'em up, and you'll be able to fly up and down the fretboard, moving from one scale pattern into the next and into the next. It takes time to get it all memorized and worked out, but...
You Can Do This!
