Example 5

Mix and match

Borr owing sequence and fingering ideas normally associated with other scale types can yield interesting results. Here I have applied a typical minor pentatonic sequence to an unusual 2-note-per string A Aeolian scale fingering. Notice how much ground this covers on the neck and how quickly it does it. The position shifts are a little tricky to play but if you attempt to play exactly the same thing most other ways it is even more difficult – try it and see!
