Hello I know pentatonic scales however when you play an “e” bar on the 9th fret. What kind of scale goes with that chord? And same with the “d” positions for “d” and “a” and “g” going up the neck. What notes are the scale on those chords? Do I play the third or fourth box when I’m playing those chords? I can’t find an answer thank you
Hey Griff,

I am not sure why you’re saying you could not treat it like the blues if it’s three major triads. For example a 12 bar progression played in a shuffle using just the major chords it seems anybody who is soloing and incorporates a flat seven that it would be a blues.
I actually said, specifically, that you can, but it will make it sound very bluesy which may not be what you want.
Ok, got it. Thanks!
As usual you hit where I’m struggling. I can’t remember how I connected with you but I’m glad I did. You push me and teach me constantly.and I thank you.
