method

The minor pentatonic scale is typically every guitar player’s first starting point, but there is a world of music - famous songs and inspirational guitar heroes who have crafted their sound from the major pentatonic. Mastering this scale and it’s sound is a transformative journey into a world of Southern Rock, Country and sophisticated Blues guitar.

In this 11 part program, Danny Gill makes learning these impactful scales fun and motivational, with instant musical applications to have you jamming right away!

Much like Danny’s Minor Pentatonic course, lesson one starts with a single small scale fragment and focuses on simple yet effective musical tools to build your confidence, before expanding your scale knowledge.

With each lesson you will learn a new musical concept to help you deliver killer phrasing, such as using repetition, creating themes, leaving space, timing and creative use of rhythms. Plus jam with Danny in real time to develop your ears.

This guitar improvisation course is the perfect alternative to learning your scale shapes the traditional way; Danny builds your scale knowledge in easy to visualise sections, helping you commit these to memory and create real solos, before developing your knowledge further. The goal of the course is to provide you with a full and confident picture of the major pentatonic and blues scales across the entire fretboard.

As with all of Danny’s courses, you will learn just the right amount of music theory to help you stand on your own and take your new skills beyond the course.

And, most importantly of all, there’s never a dull moment - every example and idea sees you playing along with Danny to an awesome backing track, creating your own phrases and licks in the moment, plus tonnes of amazing licks!
“Simply put, Danny Gill is a natural born teacher. His mastery of the fretboard and complex understanding
of music theory enables him to provide an educational context for how and why chords, scales & arpeggios (for example), fit together. He has a deep reservoir of knowledge in all genres of music so there is never a shortage of material to explore. He has helped bring my playing farther in a relatively short period of time than I ever could have imagined.
