At the risk of going over something that may be incredibly smple...

I had NO idea you could use a minor pent scale ovver a major chord prgression. I found this out by accident when i was trying to solo over an Emaj, Asus2, Bsus2 progression. Gawd it was purely by mistake that i fopund myself playing the minor pent scale and it sounded just as good when i used the E minor pent over this progression. I was wondering if someone could explain the theory behind it. It sounds so incredibly cool and its something i want to explore more in-depth.

Thanks :)
