How to Connect Every Scale Shape Using CAGED (Fretboard Freedom)
Do you feel like you’re playing random patterns without really seeing the fretboard?
In this lesson, we’re moving beyond just memorizing shapes. I’ll show you exactly how to connect the 5 CAGED chord shapes to the Major Pentatonic scale, turning the neck into one clear, navigable map.
What you’ll learn in this video:
🎸 How to anchor any scale to a chord shape you already know.
🎸 The “Root-High-Low” exercise to internalize the scale root.
🎸 How to switch between C, F, and G chords without moving your hand up and down the neck in 5 different positions.
🎸 Moving from “playing scales” to “making music” – a solo utilizing all the stuff we learned including TAB.
