Hey, this is Chris from the guitar training camp and guitar me in this lesson I'm going to show you a common lead path that guitar players use to get all the way from down here G major. I'm going to show you how to go up G major pentatonic and end up here in position number one up here on the 15th fret. Let's take a look. Okay, in this lesson, I'm going to show you how to play a G major pentatonic lead path. And what that means is, you know, I have a lot of students and they learn how to play position one, position to position three, position for position five, but then they want to know how do I how can I get a go between those How can I go up the neck and down the neck pretty easily and that's what this lead path is going to do.

It's going to basically lead you up through all five positions. This is going through the lead path with the interval number. So this is one this is G right here 123 561-235-6361. Okay, now we're going to come back when go 1-653-216-5321 653 to one. That was the the lead path using the interval numbers. Now let's go ahead and I will go ahead and play through it again and use the letters of the G major scale.

Go up the neck using letters, it's going to go G, A, B, D, G, A, B, A, G, call him back, it's gonna go D, B, A, G, A, G, D, A. So the main benefit of this path is it just gives you a way to scoot around the neck. Like if you know you want to be down here and you want to get up to this pattern. You know, it's nice to be able instead of just jumping up there, it's nice Be able to have a way to slide right up into that pattern. So it feels natural feels it looks natural. So some different things that you can do.

Me personally, I like when you slide up here from, from two to three of these six notes here in a row. Jimi Hendrix should use those a lot. I love this kind of what I'm doing it that that sound, Hendrix did it a lot. What I'm doing is I'm holding this G and this C down that I'm hammering down on this a here. So to me, it's on hold holding this, it's a fourth. The interval here, it's just two notes beside each other.

That I'm hammering down a whole step below on the lower strike. Then you can do it on strings four and five. Then you can go over and do it on the last. Just a nicer Lower this lower range area to do some Sylvania. Another area that's nice is this area right here. I love this lick right?

That look sounds great right there. What I'm doing is I'm holding this E, I'm sorry, this D, D and G and then I'm hammering down on this E here. No one number wise it's, this is five and one that I'm hammering down on six. That's a nice little area at least Oh, this is a great place here. Here's the route here, this G. I like to take this, this D here and bend it up, up to up to B, which is Third, I like to bend this up with my pinky get this D here, which is the fifth. Come back down to one.

So nice little look right there and automatically everyone, not everybody but generally it's nice to get back. Back up to position number five there were a lot of people have a lot of their legs. So this path is a way that you can lead yourself right up into there so you can do some leads up higher. So those are just a couple little lead areas that I like to noodle around in. So my suggestion is to run this, this path. Just keep going up and down it until you haven't memorized but this is not set in stone.

This I think I even changed a little going back. But um, you know, you just want to get familiar with it, and then start practicing when you stop during the path, then how do you go back into? Like if I want to stop in this position here, position four. How do I get up to the so that I'm kind of in position four, I want to stop in position number three right here. I think that I'm right in this position. Obviously, position two is right here.

You don't have to get very far for that. But just a quick little path to get it smoothly. Get between all all the five positions up and down the neck. I hope you've enjoyed this lead guitar lesson.
