Guitar Shapes - Major 3rd shape using pinky and ring finger

In this exercise, we practice the Major 3rd shape on the pinky and ring finger.

While this particular shape isn’t used much, its important to know that its is theoretically possible, and that we know how to use it, but choose not to, because there are usually better alternatives available.

This shape could also be used as part of a minor pentatonic shape building exercise,

As this shape exercise uses two notes from the minor pentatonic, which would be the minor 3rd and the perfect 5th.
