Hi,

I'm just coming towards the end of the second basics course, and I'm learning a few different scales elsewhere on the website (as suggested in the scales unit).

This is probably stupid and a result of me being tired, but whilst practising the major and minor pentatonic box patterns I couldn't understand why they were exactly the same? I know the tutor says that the shapes are exactly the same whilst the scale degrees are different, but surely the major pentatonic scale is going to have a different sound to the minor one?

If someone can try and help me understand this would be great.

Thanks

Liz
