_ _ _ _ _ Hey, this is Travis.
I just wanted to do a little video tutorial on _ _ _ connecting the minor
pentatonic scale all the way down the neck. _ _ _ _ _
I hope this lesson helps _ people who have a
song in their head, because everybody has a song in their head that they want to express,
but they don't know how because they don't know how to play an instrument or they [A] don't
know the advanced theory of it or anything.
_ But I just hope this helps you express what
you have in your head and in your mind and in your soul.
_ Alright, _ let's go ahead and
get started. _ _ _ _ _ _
We're in A, the key of A minor.
