I've watched a thousand videos on pentatonic blues soloing and this is the first time I've ever been told that secret of playing the minor scale over major. Wow.

I have learned more from you in just a few videos than I have in many years of learning and playing. You explain theory, soloing, leads and chords in a very simple, easy to understand way. Thank you.

The most gifted guitar teacher i've seen on youtube so far. All videos are pure content and not about fancy recording. I feel like back at university :D Thank you for your content!

Finally! You nailed this question so many others danced around. Simple clear, concise, and definitive. Well done sir.

The real genius behind teaching any subject is being able to see, and then explain, the simplicity that lies behind what seems complex at first sight. You have mastered this brilliantly. Thanks for such an enlightening lesson.

It took me years to figure out what you've summarized so well in 15 minutes. For anyone who hasn't watched it, Jules' video on blending major and minor in blues is the next step in blues guitar. You might also try using the Mixolydian scale over each chord in the 12-bar. Just as the Am is the relative minor of C major (same notes), the G Mixolydian is the relative Mixolydian scale of C major (i.e., the C major beginning and ending on the fifth tone, or the note G). But all there is to finding the Mixolydian scale of any Chord is to flat the 7th tone of the major scale.

I started playing in 1987. And... You just blew my mind. I made this so much harder than it needed to be. Seriously I am just staring at the computer saying "really"? I feel like a moron.

Got a lot of information out of this. Thank you good sir! Know that you are an amazing teacher and lover of music 🎶

Honestly this is exactly what I wanted to know in a nice simple short video. I'm learning to play the guitar on my own and I never seen anyone simplify it the way you did.

"That A minor scale kinda grinds against the A Major Chord...BUT IN A GOOD WAY" and thus Jules encapsulates the universal essence of musical theory in a video that should be Lesson Number One for anyone aspiring to write that first, coherent tune. Great communication. Thanks you

Excellent explanation of major and minor pentatonic scales and how to use them. I must also complement you on your quality of the backing track and the tone of your guitar. It really helps the listener to hear the difference between major and minor. The lead lines are excellent and landing on the target notes. Nothing to complicated just played at the right tempo. I do wish your channel the best of luck. I would put it in the top five that I have seen. Keep up the good work. I will definitely be back to see more of your videos.
