Learn 6 guitar scale patterns you need to know for playing rock, blues, metal and other styles of guitar in this 'no bull' guitar tutorial. Let's face it, we guitar players need to know at least a few scale patterns if we want to play fluently. But with so many scale patterns on guitar, where do you begin? With the most important and useful ones of course! That's why I made this video. I want to show you 6 of the most common guitar scale patterns that guitarists use when they play so you can start to play your own licks and melodies on the guitar just like your favourite players do.

This guitar lesson will teach you scale patterns on guitar for the minor pentatonic scale, blues scale, the natural minor scale or Aeolian mode, major pentatonic and the major scale. We'll also discuss the concept of the root note, and how to use it to move any of these scales into any key on the guitar neck (essential stuff for any aspiring guitar soloist or improviser!)
