🎸 Pentatonic Lick #7

What happens if you take a lick and play the notes in reverse order?

You get a completely different phrase from the same pentatonic material.

It’s a simple way to stop just memorising licks and start creating your own vocabulary.

🎸 NEW: Pentatonic Guitar Lick #7

How many different licks can you create from one simple musical idea?

For #7 in my pentatonic series, we take the phrase and reverse the order of the notes.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #6 🎸

Same pentatonic idea.
One small change.

This time I sustain the final note — giving the phrase more space and a completely different feel.

You don’t always need new notes to create new licks. Sometimes changing the rhythm is enough.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #6 🎸

Here’s another way to get more mileage from one simple pentatonic idea.

For this version, the main change is at the end of the phrase: the final note is sustained.

That extra space changes the phrasing and gives the lick a very different character without needing to learn a completely new pattern.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #5 🎸

Sometimes the easiest way to create a new lick is to REMOVE something.

For this one I took the original pentatonic idea and removed the first note.

That gives us a 7-note phrase — and suddenly the pattern starts shifting across the beat.

One note less. Completely different feel.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #5 🎸

Here’s another way to develop one simple pentatonic idea.

For this version I removed the first note, leaving a 7-note pattern.

Because 7 notes don’t sit neatly against a 4/4 pulse, the phrase starts moving across the beat and creates a completely different rhythmic effect.

More notes don’t automatically create better music.

Pentatonic scales may be among the first scales guitarists learn, but those same five notes can also produce incredibly sophisticated playing.

In this new video, I begin with one simple A minor pentatonic sequence and explore how changing its rhythm, direction, articulation and note order can generate an expanding collection of guitar licks.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #4 🎸

Take one pentatonic idea…
Split it into 4-note groups…
Then use slides to move through the scale.

Another lick without learning another completely unrelated pattern.

Pentatonic Lick #4 is out 🎸

Here’s another way of developing one simple pentatonic idea.

This version splits the pattern into 4-note units and uses slides to move through different positions of the scale.

It’s a good example of how you can create completely new phrases without continually having to learn new shapes.

Pentatonic Guitar Lick #3 🎸

What happens if we change just ONE note length?

This lick uses exactly the same basic pentatonic idea as before — but sustaining the first note shifts everything that follows rhythmically.

A tiny change, but a completely different feel.
