The pentatonic scale is probably the most widely used scale for guitarists and is applied in rock, pop, blues, funk & jazz. A basic topic that every aspiring or already advanced guitarist should deal with.
If you want more than just to play the pentatonic scale up and down again, you should systematically work on this scale with Jil's Pentatonic Workshop for Electric Guitar. With many exercises and practical examples and a plethora of guitar-typical phrasing examples.
The author Jil Y. Creek, known and loved for her monthly workshop column Jil's Jam in the largest German-language trade magazine Gitarre & Bass, understands like no other how to present this, for some, somewhat brittle subject matter in an exciting and clear way - with guaranteed learning success and a practice plan!
Numerous audio examples enclosed with the book bring motivation and orientation into the daily practice routine. A total of 10 supplementary videos with selected licks (one video for each chapter) enrich the learning content and illustrate guitar articulation (e.g. bendings, tappings, hammer-ons, pull-offs), especially as all videos are also available in a slower version in which the licks are demonstrated at half speed.
The author also approaches the subject of guitar phrasing in a similarly logical way to the fingerings and basic exercises presented: everything that a rock/pop/fusion/blues/jazz guitarist needs is presented: you are systematically introduced to the use of hammer-ons, pull-offs, vibrato, bending, slides, pinch harmonics, dead notes and much more.
