Blues Boxes With The Major and Minor Root Notes. One of the most common sticking points with people learning to solo in blues is this concept of switching between the major and the minor blues sounds. My goal with this report, and the accompanying videos, is to hopefully help you with your mental model of the blues and pentatonic scales, how they go together, and how you can mentally “see” them easier. I like to think of soloing and improvising in levels. I also believe there are mechanics – how to play something. And there are “what to play” concepts. You might see me refer to these things as “hows” and “whats” so youll know what I mean. So lets look at these levels as I think of them: The Highest Level – 100% Whats At this level, you never consiously think about how to play anything. You are able to look at music as a whole and to decide what you sound you want to hear at any given moment – and you are able to rely on your fingers to play whatever you imagine. I dont know anyone personally who plays in this state 100% of the time. I, and many professional guitarists I know, live here 90% of the time or more, and only venture out of it when we want to challenge ourselves with new sounds or concepts that we havent completely learned yet. The Lowest Level – 100% Hows Technically speaking, this would be a beginner who cannot play a note. But for our purposes Im going to define this level as someone who has skill on the guitar, but is just starting to learn and memorize scales and patterns for soloing. Nothing is commited to memory yet, and whenever a student at this level solos, it basically sounds like a scale. Where are you? Y
