Let’s learn another fun new lick from one of my favorite patterns, the “House Pattern.”

It’s a pattern I see used in blues, extensively, but also in country and classic rock. It’s an amazing way to get all the sounds you need in one small area of the fretboard. You can check out The House Pattern course as well for more:

      Love it! Thanks Griff!

      Hi Griff, great lesson. Could you explain why this house pattern doesn’t follow the A pentatonic scale even though it’s in A. It appears it’s box 2 from the B pentatonic scale. Thank you. Gary

        The notes in the pattern are the 1 2 4 5 6 in the Key of A Major. No 3 or 7.

        The A MAJOR Pentatonic would have a 3 instead of the 4.

        Playing the same notes considering B to be the root would be the B MINOR pentatonic in Box 2.

        Ricardo nailed the answer. It all depends on how you look at it.
