Being creative with a single scale, part 1 of 2

Learn how to get the most out of one scale, as a first step towards natural improvisation.
Don't ask for tabs, but try for yourself what I am trying to explain, that's the whole point!
The backing track is in the Tube Tracks package, see http://www.MattOtten.com
There are also lesson materials there on the web site.
Sorry about the bad light in the video, it was getting lighter outside all the time while I was doing this!

Hes right, play it like a melody. A lot of guitarists forget about the rest notes, it adds soooo much fluidity.
