The blues scale contains all the same notes as the minor pentatonic, with the addition of one note, the flatted fifth. Sometimes known as the "blue note" , the flatted fifth is usually used as a passing tone. So in this lesson we are going to go through all the five positions of the blues scale on the acoustic guitar.
POSITION 1
POSITION 2
POSITION 3
POSITION 4
POSITION 5
Note that all "Red circles" with (R) are root notes.
