The Missing Link: How to Connect Major & Minor Pentatonics

You don’t need to learn new scale shapes! 🎸

Many guitarists struggle with “information overload” when trying to master the fretboard. The truth? You already know the minor pentatonic shapes, you just haven’t learned how to unlock them yet.

In Part 2 of our CAGED Masterclass, we’re diving into the “Missing Link”: the connection between the Major and Minor Pentatonic scales. I’ll show you how to use the exact same 5 shapes you already know to play over any chord, major or minor, with one simple shift.

What you’ll learn in this video:
✅ The “3-fret rule” to find your relative minor.
✅ How to bridge the gap between Major and minor sounds using the CAGED system.
✅ Practical visualization: Seeing the minor root within your major shapes.
✅ BONUS: A full “Little Wing” style etude based on these concepts!
