I’ll show you the main guitar scales you need to know and how you can move these scale patterns to change keys. We’re going to map out the guitar neck so you never get lost on the fretboard, and eventually, you’ll be able to play lead guitar over any song.

In this guitar lesson, we’ll go over how you can go about playing lead guitar using the pentatonic scales. Once you learn the pentatonic scales in one key, you’ve learned them in all keys because the scales are movable. You’ll be able to play lead guitar all the way up and down the neck of the guitar without getting lost on the fretboard. The pentatonic scales can be used to solo over the majority of country songs you hear on the radio.
