Eb Major Pentatonic Scale (Guitar) + Jam Session 111h

The Scale of the Day is Eb major pentatonic for the guitar:


Chords for Jam Session 111h:   Bb Ab Eb



Jam Session Notes:  Check out the original show notes here.

Jam Session Serving Suggestions:  For stringed instruments, like guitar and bass, try having some open strings (un-fretted notes) that are a part of the key you're using.  For example, if you are playing in Eb, tune your strings a half-step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb).  If you are playing in D, try dropped-D tuning (D A D G B E), full-step down tuning (D G C F A D), or open-D tuning (D A D F# A D).  If you are jamming in G, standard tuning is cool, and so is open-G (D G D G B D).  You'll find some neat chord voicings that incorporate open strings.
