:cool: It is hard to show each Pentatonic pattern/box clearly, because of it's location on the guitar neck and the fact that several patterns overlap.


For me to learn them easier, I decided to show each pattern, for each key, on the guitar neck by itself. This really helped me, when I was learning
On one of the attachments, I show all the patterns on one guitar neck and show how some overlap.

I have only been playing for about 9-months, but I can play 3 of the 5 patterns fairly well in all the different keys along with some background blues jam music I bought.

I have created multiple "cheat-sheets" I use when I play that shows the following for each key (A, C, D, E, F, G):
A. 3 of the 5 patterns (that I like best #1, #3, #5)
B. on one guitar neck (overlapping when they overlap)
C. after the 12th fret all the above (A&B) repeat (if you are doing a pattern starting on the 3rd fret, the same pattern can be played starting on the 15th fret, etc.).

Being new to the "Pentatonic" boxes/patterns, seeing them all together, overlapping and in different keys was overwhelming to me.
When I broke them down into little pieces (like anything else), one per guitar neck, it became easy. If anyone would like copies of what I created, let me know.
