CHAIRMAN OF THE BORED, PART 2
How to “connect the dots” to break out of a rut
In this lesson, Joe Bonamassa continues investigating ways to find new ideas and musical inspiration to help break out of a soloing rut. Many blues and rock players learn how to devise single-note licks by studying the “box” patterns for scales like minor and major pentatonic. One of the best ways to break out of a rut when soloing and mine new musical territory is to move from one box and fretboard position to another as a line progresses, taking advantage along the way of what each new fretboard “destination” will yield.

I often find his slow is still very fast for a lot of players 😊

To create such a sophisticated sound with the most un-sophisticated scale is just incredible. The speed is mind boggling. No 3nps legato or locrian diminished nonsense, just pentatonic. It really goes to show, pick one thing and do it really really well, is sage advice. Definitely one of the best alive and a super cool guy. Wish he had more videos like this.

Joe B: "How do you connect them do this" <insanely fast riffing>..."I'll slow it down for you"... <still fast riffing>.
Me: "huh??? STILL too fast dood!!!!" lol

A lot of people complaining about his speed miss the point that not every lesson is for beginners.

This video tells me that you can connect pentatonic boxes, but it does not tell / show me how to do that: Joe, how about showing some of the routes between the boxes - the specific points connecting them - rather than playing from top to bottom really fast?

Sounds great ! Just a little MORE slower please 😊👍

Looks like JB has 2 boxes then the relative minor box to cover all 12 frets. 3 boxes in total think about it. 🎶

When JB is playing at full speed, his fingers are, literally, a blur.

If anyone could do a comprehensive lesson on taking the blues sound out of the minor pentatonic, Joe could.

I use vii° (Mode Seven Diminished) as a transport scale, really connects E and A form Pentatonics (or fast minors) for me.

Oh, and Joe, playing a P-90 guitar you signed for my late great bandmate Timmy "Heavy T" Matdies of Kalispell, Montana. Craig

I like the Norm Macdonald reference. Haha

It would be easier for me to learn if he would speed it up just a little so my mind doesn't wander while I'm trying to wait patiently for the next note.
