Here's the next episode of Scales & Tales with part two of The Pentatonic Highway. Part one in this series had a good response with plenty of comments/messages about the material, and there were numerous requests to dig a little deeper into this topic/concept, so without further ado - here's the second look at creating pentatonic-based "highways" on the fretboard.

This lesson begins by changing not only the key but also the fingering that was shown in the first installment. By taking those ideas and expanding them further, you'll see that we're able to travel along the neck using a similar concept, but the fingerings, movements, and patterns appearing along the fretboard are different, which will direct you toward new licks, phrases, and unusual ideas.

Aside from changing things around using a new key and a variation to the approach found in part one, this lesson also taps into the bizarre reverse-diagonal movement on the neck, which is strange to perform (at first) for many guitarists. The first time you encounter this type of movement, it's usually a confusing mess for your fingers (and your mind), but once you get a feel for it and shift your "mind's eye" on the neck, you'll begin using it comfortably before you know it.
