part 2: how to hold a pick, the major scale, & the pentatonic scale
part 2/5 of my series, guitar lessons for a 9 year old.
W-W-h-W-W-W-h
W = whole step = two half-steps
h = half-step
you can find the major scale easily on any piano. just play the white keys starting on C. and the white keys without a black key in between them? those are the half-steps in the scale!
oh, and those two notes I added to the major pentatonic (to make the major scale) are the same notes you would add to the minor pentatonic to make the natural minor scale.
