In this lesson we're going to be taking a look at how to play the minor pentatonic scale position number five. This is the final pentatonic pattern going up the neck. If you learn all of the five patterns, you will be able to play a pentatonic scale in any key anywhere on the neck. Of course memorizing and learning the five patterns and how they link together is a lot of work but the payoff is really worth it. Let's learn how to play position number five minor pentatonic scale position five, I've chosen to use start on C here. Once again, it's kind of in the middle of the neck.

So I'm going to start on this C on the sixth string eighth fret. I could have started anywhere I could have started right here. I wanted to do an A D, just choosing to start here on this C. So it goes one flat 345, flat seven, one, flat 345, flat seven. Coming back one, flat seven, five, or flat three, flat 754, flat three, one, flat seven and back to one. Let's get through that again. One flat 345 flat seven flat 345 flat seven lawn.

Flat seven, five, or flat three, flat 754 flat three, one, flat seven, and back to one. That was how to play the minor pentatonic position number five. Now it's your job to practice all five patterns and learn how to link them all together. Have fun
