By now, you likely know that you can use the minor blues scale or minor pentatonic scale over all of the chords of a blues…<\/p>\n

And you may even know the major blues sound and how to play it…<\/p>\n

And you may even know that you can use it over the I chord…<\/p>\n

But you might have tried it, and found it to sound a little stale, or not perfect.<\/p>\n

That’s because it’s missing the b7 of the chord, and because the shape doesn’t naturally guide your playing into the chord tones the way an arpeggio will.<\/p>\n

As always, use this some, not all of the time. Add it to your bag, don’t replace anything.<\/p>\n
