The FIRST SCALE you need to learn on guitar PLUS TEN RIFFS!

In this first single note guitar lesson, we look at the E Minor Pentatonic Scale in open position (which mean it uses open strings!) This is appropriate as your first ever scale! That word 'scale' can be very scary for some people- it was for me too! However, a scale simply give you all the 'good notes' that work well one after the other in ascending and descending order. Its like learning the 'ABC' of music so we can learn to make the guitar 'talk'!

As a scale alone is pretty useless (no one goes to a gig to hear scales!) we look at 10 songs that use notes from this scale so you can APPLY the 'good notes' you now know straight away! This scale means we can play Rock and Blues riffs. If that sounds like fun- you got to learn this scale!!
